Members of the union Aslef will walk out on May 7, 8 and 9 and also ban overtime for six days from May 6

. The latest strikes come as part of a long-running dispute over pay between the union and rail companies.

General secretary Mick Whelan said: "It is now a year since we sat in a room with the train companies and a year since we rejected the risible offer they made and which they admitted, privately, was designed to be rejected. "That's why Mark Harper, the Transport Secretary, is being disingenuous when he says that offer should have been put to members. Drivers would not vote to strike if they thought an offer was acceptable."
