Train drivers from Midland Mainline are due to stage their
second 24-hour walkout today in a series of strikes over pensions.
A number of services will be suspended and passengers are warned to
expect delays.
Aslef, the train drivers' union has said the dispute is due to
disagreements over pension provision after a pay deal agreed in
2001. More strikes are expected on the next four Thursdays.
