Passengers traveling between London and Edinburgh will face significant disruption due to 22 days of strike action announced by LNER drivers from early September to November.
Aslef, the train drivers' union, cites bullying by management and a breakdown in industrial relations as key reasons for the strike action, aimed at every weekend until mid-November.
This strike is distinct from the ongoing national dispute involving several train companies and could signal further complications for the new Labour government overseeing LNER.
Mick Whelan, Aslef's general secretary, expressed, 'We would much rather not be here,' emphasizing that unresolved industrial relations issues forced the decision to strike.
