Two days of rail chaos in Norfolk have been averted after planned strikes by One workers were called off at the eleventh hour.

Members of the Rail Maritime and Transport Union (RMT) were due to walk out for 24 hours on Saturday and again on Monday in support of Paul Yarwood, who was dismissed from his job as a guard following an incident with a fare dodger.
The union said today there had been a settlement acceptable to both sides.

The action was also were expected to disrupt Norwich to London intercity routes and services between Bury St. Edmunds and Lowestoft to London
