Two thousand train services across central London and the south coast have been cancelled - as drivers for train company Southern begin a 48 hour strike.

Commuter Valentina said: 鈥淭he service is appalling, the union needs to do something to sort out the situation.鈥�
Single mother Sue says she lost her job because of delays to her commute: 鈥淚 cannot pay my rent because I lost my job two months ago. I鈥檝e now found a job 鈥� but how do I get to work?鈥�

The walkout by members of the ASLEF union is the latest in a long-running dispute over plans to make drivers close train doors, rather than conductors.

Sue said: 鈥淚鈥檓 angry at the drivers 鈥� if other trains can run without guards then why can鈥檛 they?鈥�

Transport Secretary Chris Grayling has urged train drivers to get back to work saying the strikes were "entirely politically motivated, there is no question about that."
