Both operators are advising that services running early on Friday, August 19, and Sunday, August 21 may also be disrupted due to trains being in the wrong place overnight.
Meanwhile, Transport for Wales (TFW) have warned against travelling on the network unless absolutely necessary from today until August 22.
The operator is not involved in the dispute but will be unable to operate rail services on Network Rail infrastructure while workers are on strike.
