A legal challenge to the TSSA union has been issued by Network Rail in an attempt to limit disruption should talks with the unions fail.
A Network Rail spokesperson said: “We have asked the TSSA to withdraw notice of their industrial action as we believe there are numerous defects in their ballot information.
“Network Rail has a responsibility to passengers, freight users and to the country as a whole to do everything we can to avert a strike.
“Talks with the unions continue and we hope to reach a settlement, but we must explore all avenues at our disposal and that includes legal ones.”
