RailNews.co.uk - More than two-thirds of RMT members balloted at Govia Thameslink Railway have voted in favour of strikes or other industrial action over proposed changes to ticket office hours, the RMT said. The union reported that 70 per cent had been in favour of a strike, and almost 80 per cent supported other industrial action short of a strike. GTR wants to close some offices entirely, bringing staff on to station concourses from where they could still sell tickets, while although other offices would remain their opening hours would be cut. The union fears that at least 130 jobs could be lost.
