A train operator will run no services from Liverpool after 7pm on the night the city hosts the Eurovision final due to a strike.

TransPennine Express (TPE) said it “will do all we can to help make the event a success” but a walkout by members of the Rail, Maritime and Transport union (RMT) will have a “significant impact” on services.

Passengers planning to travel to and from Liverpool for the show on May 13 are being urged to check their travel plans in advance.
