At this rate, we may as well have DLR, cable car, Trams, join in, the more the merrier  Trams already included in the strike. DLR running as they don’t need humans to operate. You get a drift of where things are heading … At least we have an excellent network of buses which are very frequent (every 3-4 min) paralleling tube lines in a lot of cases which can easily handle whatever happens. Oh wait, we hacked that to bits DLR certainly does need humans to operate.... |

We aren’t in skynet territory yet!! |

Most operators are now publishing at least outline details of what they intend to run on strike days, and also on the days in between.
In general, those services that do run on strike days will start after 07.00 and will have ceased operating by 18.30.
On non-strike days (Wednesday 22nd and Friday 24th June) in general services will not start until 07.00 and will operate to reduced frequencies, typically at Sunday levels of service.

We are advising customers to avoid travelling on Tuesday 21 June, when strike action will severely disrupt most of TfL's and national rail's services.
Services which are running, including buses and DLR, are likely to be extremely busy with queues to board. Customers using DLR services from stations also served by the Tube are advised to check before they travel due to possible station closures.
Any Tube services that do operate are unlikely to run after 19:00, so anyone who needs to travel should complete their journey by 18:00.
Disruption on all Tube lines will continue through the morning of Wednesday 22 June. No London Underground services are expected to run before 08:00. We encourage customers to avoid making journeys until mid-morning.
Strike action is also taking place across national rail services on Tuesday 21, Thursday 23 and Saturday 25 June. There will be a reduced service on the Elizabeth line and London Overground due to the strike, as these services share some track and assets.
London Overground will only run from 07:30 until 18:30 on each day. Services that do run are expected to be very busy and may not be able to stop at all stations.
On Thursday 23 and Saturday 25, we will run as much of our network as possible, but disruption is expected on the following sections of line:
Bakerloo line - Queens Park to Harrow & Wealdstone
London Overground
District line - Richmond and Wimbledon branches
Waterloo & City line
Elizabeth line
Disruption on lines affected by Network Rail strike actions will continue into Friday 24 and Sunday 26 June. Avoid making journeys on affected services until mid-morning each day

Is it signal controlled by National Rail? |

Grant Shapps speech earlier today is now available online Sounds like he is happy for pay rises and fair pay, but only if the management and rail unions agree to modernisation of multiple areas. In my opinion if the Union was really clever it would have said we can modernise A, B, C, D, E, etc and for everyone agreed want X pay rise. Then agree shed loads of changes. www.gov.uk/government/speeches/building-a-better-railway |

Just from reading Shapps words it would likely mean more weekend shifts with less ticket offices and more on platform work. Similar to what the underground did a few years back where ticket offices were closed and staff were forced to work at gate lines or as passenger assistance. |

So would they switch the power off. Very confusing. There wouldn't be anyone at NR to switch traction current on in the mornings. |
