Negotiations to resolve disputes between rail maintenance workers and Network Rail will resume later.The Rail Maritime and Transport (RMT) union and Network Rail will meet at the conciliation service Acas.
Four days of strikes were called off last after a successful legal challenge to the union's ballots by Network Rail.
Meanwhile, Scottish rail workers on First ScotRail have begun a three-day walkout in a dispute over introducing ticket inspectors.
ScotRail said it would operate 95% of services during the strike.
At Acas on Monday, the RMT and Network Rail will discuss the maintenance workers dispute about plans to axe 1,500 maintenance jobs and change rosters to allow more work in the evenings and at weekends.
A separate dispute over signal workers will be discussed at a later date, Acas said.
Network Rail's legal challenge concerned only the ballot of signallers, and did not relate to the RMT's ballot of maintenance workers and the Transport Salaried Staffs' Association (TSSA) ballot of supervisors.
But after the ruling, RMT and TSSA announced the two other strikes would be suspended and fresh ballots would be held, the timetable for which has yet to be announced.This article is from the BBC News website. ?
