West Midlands: West Midlands Railway/London Northwestern Railway rail strike on 22–23 May 2026
Last Updated:
Train services on West Midlands Railway and London Northwestern Railway will be severely reduced on 22–23 May due to strike action by TSSA members. WMR says only limited services will run on a few routes (Cross City Line, Wolverhampton–Walsall, Rugeley Trent Valley–Birmingham International), with no trains after 19:00 on Friday and a later 07:00 start on Saturday; National Rail also advises checking first and last trains and notes a reduced Birmingham–London Euston service. The dispute is between TSSA and the operator.
