Train drivers at more than a dozen companies will strike on 1 September and refuse to work overtime on 2 September, their union Aslef has said.

It marks the latest industrial action in Aslef's long-running pay dispute.

The overtime ban will coincide with a strike by other rail workers such as guards and station staff in the RMT union at 14 train companies, in a separate dispute.

The RMT also has a strike on Saturday, 26 August.
