Kings Cross train station at a standstill amid strikes

Train services have been severely disrupted as rail workers stage a walkout in the first of a wave of 48-hour strikes.

Workers are pressing ahead with two 48-hour strikes at Network Rail and 14 train companies from Tuesday and Friday after two-thirds of RMT's members rejected the latest pay offer from the government.
