Workers walkout: Carlisle Settle rail line

Workers are protesting redundancies Credit: PA

Workers on the historic Carlisle Settle rail line have walked out again as part of a long-running dispute over compulsory redundancies.

The 24-hour stoppage began at midnight.

The employees are members of the RMT rail union and provide a trolly catering service on the Northern Rail trains that use the line.

They are protesting the Settle and Carlisle Development Company's decision to make redundancies.
