Because the London Midland train firm relies on train drivers to volunteer working on Sundays, travellers were faced with both staff and train shortages today!

London Midland had an agreement with drivers, who got double their normal wage for the Sunday shifts. However, this agreement ended last week, and not enough drivers came forward to take over this week's shift.

This is likely to go on, so don't travel on London Midland on Sunday unless you absolutely have to!
