Passengers have been warned not to travel on a busy rail route on Sunday because of a lack of available train drivers.

First Capital Connect (FCC) said there will be no service on its Great Northern route, and trains it does operate are likely to be "extremely busy".

Union leaders said workers were not taking industrial action but were merely exercising their contractual right not to work on Sundays.
