LNER Train Drivers to Strike on Weekends for Three Months

Train drivers at London North Eastern Railway will strike every weekend from late August until mid-November, announced by union Aslef due to a breakdown in industrial relations. These strikes will affect LNER services between London King's Cross and Edinburgh. Additionally, Border Force officers at Heathrow Airport will strike over working conditions, further disrupting travel.
Train drivers at London North Eastern Railway (LNER) will strike every weekend from late August until mid-November, as announced by union Aslef.

The strikes stem from a breakdown in industrial relations and are separate from an ongoing pay dispute affecting other train companies.

These strikes will impact LNER services running between London King's Cross and Edinburgh, affecting cities like Newcastle, York, and Durham.

LNER, managed by the government, expressed disappointment and aims to minimize disruption.

Border Force officers at Heathrow are also set for industrial action over working conditions, further impacting travelers.
