This month and next month, rail workers will be going on strike across the country in an attempt to get better working conditions and pay.
As a result on May 12, 31 and June 3, the majority of services will no longer be running. On May 13, rail services will also be seriously impacted.
However, a few services will still be running throughout the strike period, meaning some of the major train stations in Yorkshire will still see trains arrive. These are mostly for the major lines between cities like Leeds and London.
