Rail workers set to go on strike on London’s main line on New Year’s Eve

Workers on London’s Elizabeth Line are set to go on strike on New Year’s Eve over a pay dispute.

Rail, Maritime and Transport (RMT) members based at the control room will be out for 24 hours from 9pm on New Year’s Eve.

This will put many revelers’ plans on hold as they struggle to find another way to celebrate the start of the new year.

Employees also do not work on weekends or overtime from December 5 to December 18.

The union said it rejected the company’s wage offer and is seeking better holiday conditions and shorter working hours.
