RAIL users across the North-west are facing disruption on some services today because of a strike by railguards.
The Virgin West Coast to London will be affected, with a one hour service from Manchester and two hour service from Liverpool Lime Street, and no services on Virgin's Cross Country Network from the North-West .
And around half the services on Arriva Merseyside will be cancelled, although the company said it was increasing the number of seats.
Further strikes are planned on Monday and April 17.
