Planned strike action by Avanti West Coast train managers over the Christmas period has been suspended, the RMT rail union has said.

The walkouts had been planned for 22, 23, and 29 December, but the union said a new offer had been made that will now be put to train managers.

It includes higher rest day working payments and other changes to working arrangements.

The RMT said train managers will vote on the offer in a referendum that finishes on 17 December.
