Winson Green, Birmingham 3rd June 2023 - Ongoing pay disputes between the government and the ASLEF and RMT unions saw an almost entire train network shut down on Saturday. Trains were left parked up and unused at Soho traction maintenance depot (TMD) as both unions have rejected the pay offers put forward by the government, with claims there is still strong support for industrial action among their members.
