Around half of the network is closed all day and trains will operate only between 7.30am and 6.30pm. Rail passengers are being urged to only travel if"absolutely necessary".Passengers are advised to check National Rail Enquiries or their train operator's website for updates, with those who have tickets for cancelled or rescheduled journeys entitled to a refund.

In a statement, the Department for Transport urged union bosses to work with their employers"not against them".Disruption 'inevitable' during strikes
