Union stages protest at railway station

A protest is taking place at Exeter St David's Station this morning against cuts to jobs and services by the train operator First Great Western.

The RMT union says the company is planning to replace buffet cars with a trolley service in the second-class section, employ fewer train guards and conductors, and cut staff at stations.

The union says the changes will force most passengers to travel in overcrowded carriages with no hot food available - while only those in First Class enjoy a good service.
