ARRIVA trains in Wales will not run today (Monday), because of a strike by drivers, affecting services across Ceredigion and north Wales.

The 24-hour strike is expected to result in all of the Arriva’s services being cancelled.

The strike could also affect some services tomorrow morning.

Arriva Trains Wales said: “We deeply regret this disruption and continue to do all we can to avert strike action.”

RMT general secretary, Mick Cash, said: “RMT salutes our driver members on Arriva Trains Wales who are standing rock solid, shoulder to shoulder with ASLEF colleagues in the action this morning which has closed down all services.

“This strike is about basic workplace justice and decent working conditions and it is down to the company to recognise the anger amongst the workforce shown this morning and to meet with the unions for genuine and meaningful talks on the issues in dispute.”
