Members of the Transport Salaried Staffs' Association (TSSA) had been set to take industrial action on West Midlands Railway services on Friday, July 31, and Saturday, August 1, prompting the operator to plan a reduced timetable. Routes between Birmingham New Street and Hereford were among those expected to see no trains during the strike. Jonny Wiseman, customer experience director at West Midlands Railway, said: "We are pleased the TSSA has suspended its strike action, which would have been disruptive for our customers. "We now look forward to running our usual timetable on Friday and Saturday." With the industrial action now suspended as further talks with the trade union take place, West Midlands Railway has confirmed that a full service will operate as normal on both days.
