Our Managing Director, Claire Mann, and our Head of Corporate Affairs, Mark Lever, provide an update on how the ongoing industrial action is impacting SWR» (South Western Railway - about) and set out why we are running a reduced service on the network. We are very sorry for the disruption this industrial action is causing our customers, particularly at such a busy time of year.
