A REVISED rail service is in operation this weekend due to rail strike action.

Passengers are strongly advised to check their journey before travelling.

The RMT union is carrying out the walk-out as the dispute over the role of guards on trains continues.

South Western Railway says they have done "everything" they can to minimise the impact of the strike, but some services will be cancelled or delayed, and others will be busier than usual.

The strike timetable can be viewed at www.southwesternrailway.com/plan-my-journey/rmt-industrial-action
