Strike Looms on West Coast Trains | Glasgow News
Description
Train drivers on Avanti West Coast are poised for strike action over 2026 pay, as union Aslef ballots members after the company’s offer fell short—potentially crippling services between Glasgow and London. The Department for Transport’s intervention has stalled talks, with the union blaming interference for passenger inconvenience. Avanti says it’s open to dialogue, while the government insists the company can negotiate without external pressure. The ballot’s outcome could decide whether major rail routes face disruption.
