Avanti West Coast train managers have voted to strike for three days over the Christmas period.
The RMT union said that walkouts have been scheduled for 22, 23 and 29 December for the London to Scotland service after rejecting the train company’s proposals for “rest day working arrangements”.
Train managers usually work a four-day week but due to staff shortages can be asked to work on rest days but the RMT said that the current arrangements are “unacceptable”.
Avanti West Coast has been contacted for comment.
