COLOMBO (News 1st); Locomotive drivers have decided to step away from over-time service, as a trade union action against the decision taken to increase the train travel by 58%.

That was after a telephone conversation Tuesday (29) night with the Minister in charge of the subject.

Railway Locomotive Drivers’ Association warned that several trains in the evening would likely be cancelled.
