A reduced service will be in operation on the WMR network on Friday 10 July and Saturday 11 July due to strike action by members of the TSSA trade union.
On Friday, a limited timetable will be in operation and some routes will have no service. No trains will run after 7pm with the final WMR services of the day departing from 5pm.
On Saturday a limited timetable will be in operation and some routes will have no service. Trains will start later than usual, with the first WMR services of the day starting from 7am.
Jonny Wiseman, WMR customer experience director, said: “We are disappointed TSSA has called further unnecessary strike action which is set to cause significant disruption for our customers.
“We are working hard to reach a resolution to this dispute and urge TSSA to continue talks.
“We are sorry for the inconvenience this will cause our customers and are doing everything we can to minimise the impact as much as possible.
“If the strike action does go ahead, we will be running a significantly reduced timetable on both dates. Customers are advised to check before they travel by visiting journey planners and our website.”
The Cross City, Wolverhampton to Walsall and Rugeley Trent Valley lines will have limited services, while no trains are running on any other WMR route including the Camp Hill Line, Nuneaton to Leamington Spa, Birmingham New Street to Hereford and Birmingham New Street to Shrewsbury.
Some disruption to services is expected on the morning of Sunday 12 July due to displacement of trains.
