East Midlands Railway announced four additional strike dates in August 2026. The industrial action is scheduled to disrupt services running across the East Midlands Railway network, affecting routes including Kettering, Leicester, Sheffield, Luton, and Stevenage.
The strike action involves the RMT union in ongoing disputes over pay and working conditions. Passengers should anticipate cancellations, delays, and interruptions on East Midlands Railway services during the announced strike days.
