More walkouts are planned on the trains - this time over the festive period - as two weeks of talks fail to produce a deal.
Train drivers who belong to the Aslef union are staging a separate strike this Saturday, hitting services run by 11 operators, including Great Western and Southeastern.
But Mr Lynch said on Tuesday that a commitment from train companies to table a written offer at the end of those talks had not materialised.Reacting to the new strikes, Network Rail's chief negotiator stressed there was a"precarious financial hole" in the industry, which striking only made worse. "And while progress has been made over these last two weeks, we still have yet to find that breakthrough.
The prime minister's spokesman said the strikes risked"putting the future of the rail industry in jeopardy", and called on the union to"come to an agreement that is fair to passengers, taxpayers, and workers".
