Liverpool Lime Street station will still see major disruption this weekend, despite the RMT strike being called off on Friday.
It was announced on Friday afternoon that members of the Rail, Maritime and Transport union (RMT), who were due to stage 24-hour walkouts on Saturday, next Monday and Wednesday, have secured "unconditional" talks. They also received a promise of a pay offer from train operating companies.
The union said the dispute remains "very much live" and it is continuing its re-ballot of members to secure a fresh mandate for action with the result due on November 15.
