Passengers at London’s Paddington Station have their say on nationwide industrial action by railway workers over pay and conditions.

00:00 I support them 100%. The money's good for everybody. Ticket prices go up every year,
00:05 so why can't they give them what they want?
00:07 Not happy, my head's in, I hope there's no problems for us girls. Really inconsiderate.
00:12 They've been right to strike, they're underpaid and have been for a very long time. They need
00:16 their wages to catch up properly to what they should be doing.
00:19 Our train is now not running, so, and we've come down for our son's wedding, so we couldn't
00:24 change our travel plans. I just think they need to get back to work really.
00:29 I think they've been paid enough. I think they earn quite good money. I just think they've
00:35 been greedy. They're not going to get what they want, so they might as well just accept
00:39 what they've been offered and go back to work. It's just stopped in everybody's lives.
00:43 I'm not a regular train user, but yeah, all for it. Pound to the people.
