Train drivers will resume their strikes next month as part of a long-running dispute over pay. Strikes are planned for the period between 1 October and 5 October, and drivers at 12 rail companies are set to strike if negotiations are unsuccessful.

The drivers’ union Aslef will not be making a public comment until after the former monarch’s funeral on Monday.
