Leeds United have been informed by TransPennine Express that strike action will be affecting their services this Sunday, resulting in a significant reduction in the number of trains and disruption to rail journeys.

Northern will be operating some trains via their Calder Valley route and on the Leeds to Brighouse-Bradford-Leeds circuit, but these will be far busier than normal and people are advised to check and allow plenty of extra time when making their journey.

RMT has also announced further planned strike action by its TPE conductors from 00:01-23:59 on 27 February and 6 March.
