The RMT has called for urgent talks with Southern rail over its plans for the role of the train guard. 

The union has written to the managing director of the firm's parent company, Govia Thameslink. 

In the letter the RMT's General Secretary, Mick Cash, says he wants the two sides to meet ahead of a union meeting on 28 February which is due to consider further strikes by its members. 

Talks between the RMT and Southern broke down last week. 

Earlier this week in a letter to union members, Southern said it was considering imposing individual sanctions should the RMT call further industrial action.
