The British railway network warned that the strike would cause a six-day disruption of railway services.

The striking unions accused the British government of sabotaging the negotiations because they did not allow the railway company to withdraw its plans to cut 2900 jobs. The head of the trade union said that if the requirements for job security and salary increase were not met, the industry would continue to carry out strike movements.
