Train drivers in Britain will strike for two days due to a long-running dispute over wages, writes the BBC.

Unions confirmed on Tuesday that train drivers at twelve train companies will go on strike on October 1 and 5.

The strike is expected to affect travel to the London Marathon, among other things, and "thousands" of runners could have their trips disrupted, the news channel writes.

A strike had been planned for September 15, but was postponed after the news of the Queen's death.
