LNER train drivers to stage weekend strikes across three months

Train drivers at London North Eastern Railway (LNER) are set to strike every weekend in September, October and two in November, a union has announced.

The fresh strike action is separate to an ongoing pay dispute with all train companies, which edged closer to being resolved in England this week after a new pay offer.

Aslef, which represents train drivers, said the walkouts at LNER were due to a breakdown in industrial relations and agreements.

LNER operates services on the East Coast Mainline between London and Edinburgh and is run by the government.
