New ‘green’ station opens in Cambridge
A new station serving science and business parks in Cambridge has opened. Cambridge North is operated by Greater Anglia, but Great Northern trains also call there. The three-platform station includes a 1,000-space cycle park and a car park for 450 vehicles. It is also served by buses, including those on the Cambridge guided bus route. The station is ‘green’, with solar panels providing up to 10 per cent of its power.
ASLEF turns up the heat with new Southern actionUPDATED: ASLEF is reported to be planning an indefinite overtime ban on Southern as part of the continuing dispute over driver-controlled operation. The start date is not yet known, but the reports follow the announcement of a 24-hour strike by the RMT on 30 May on Southern, as well as on Merseyrail and Northern. Govia Thameslink Railway said it was 'dismayed', while the RMT has called for new joint talks.
