Show Notes
"Shutting down the railway network" – that is what the RMT union has vowed to do on 8 October, with its latest strike. The rail union made the announcement on World Car Free Day, and said: "Our industrial campaign will continue for as long as it takes." I am not sure that is a great message for the long-term health of the rail industry.
