A total of 15 rail companies have been affected as around 12,000 members of the train drivers’ union Aslef have taken part in the mass walkout.
A Scots football fan has described his 'nightmare' journey after travelling for hours amid ongoing train strikes to watch the FA Cup final.
Mr Harris told the PA news agency: “I’m here now, so that’s the main thing. It’s been torture, absolute torture, especially when they’re on 55 grand a year. I think people watching will be tired because they’ve got up so early to be here.” The 58-year-old, who was born in Manchester but is a neutral for the derby said: “I appreciate that they’ve got concerns … but the people that are suffering are not those that are involved in helping them get to what they want – they’re targeting the wrong people.”

Other attendees said the journey was better than the train, with two Manchester City fans claiming their four-hour drive to the stadium was cheaper than train tickets. Charlotte Holdsworth, 38, with her son Oliver, 13, got up at 7am to make the four-hour trip from Sale, Greater Manchester.
