A series of strikes by railway workers planned for 5, 7 and 9 November has been suspended, the RMT union has said.

The union, which represents rail workers, said it would now enter “a period of intensive negotiations” with Network Rail and the rail companies.

The strikes involved staff at Network Rail, which employs signalling workers across England, Scotland and Wales.

As a result, the action had been expected to have a major impact on services across the network.
