Rail disruption as drivers begin new overtime ban
More travel disruptions for rail passengers lie ahead this week in the latest strike action by train drivers.
The Aslef train drivers union will not work overtime from Monday 7 August through to Saturday 12 August.
The latest overtime ban is part of a long-running dispute over pay, jobs and conditions that has led to severe disruption.
Passengers have been advised to check rail services before they travel.
The overtime ban will affect Avanti West Coast, Chiltern Railways, Cross Country, East Midlands Railway, Greater Anglia, Great Western Railway, GTR Great Northern Thameslink, Island Line, LNER, Northern Trains, Southeastern, Southern/Gatwick Express, South Western Railway main line, TransPennine Express, and West Midlands Trains.
