Sydney commuters can expect further delays this afternoon with over 800 services cancelled across the rail network.

Head of Operations at Sydney Trains Jas Turner says Sydney Trains is hopeful for a favourable Fair Work Commission outcome this afternoon.

“Unfortunately the horse has bolted in the level of degradation that the network is in this afternoon … hopefully we should be able to restore our normal timetables for the weekend,” he told Clinton Maynard.
