Reports that the Bakerloo wasn't running at 8am this morning plus the Met line running from beyond Harrow (the latter I found surprising...)

Of course the tube strike had an impact on other rail services too.  Stratford International has been shown to have its busiest day since opening in this photo on Twitter: https://twitter.com/alexhern/status/430977884497645568

It became so busy later in the day, that rope barriers had to be erected: https://twitter.com/abigailb/status/430994763404574720

One of the unions involved - TSSA» (Transport Salaried Staffs' Association - about) - have suspended their planned strike action due to begin tonight.

RMT (National Union of Rail, Maritime & Transport Workers) have yet to make any announcement following talks at ACAS.

That is good news.. I think it would have been even more unpopular this week had it gone ahead because of all the other travel issues going on before people can actually get to the underground

Suspended at least until the end of April to allow the RMT (National Union of Rail, Maritime & Transport Workers) to actually attend talks/negotiations - that they had up till now, refused to do.
