Londoners brace themselves for chaos as strikes on the Tube and London Overground go ahead on Thursday, 10 November. These walkouts are separate from the latest railway disputes but will still hit commuters hard.
RMT Secures Talks but Strike Threat Looms
The RMT union has won “unconditional” talks with Network Rail and been promised a pay offer from train operators. Yet the dispute is far from over. The union continues a re-ballot of members to seek a fresh green light for strike action, with results expected on 15 November.
Travel Disruption Still on the Cards This Weekend
- South Western Railway and Great Western Railway are still warning passengers not to travel on Saturday and urging alternative transport.
- LNER and Northern Rail will stick to emergency timetables amid ongoing strike uncertainty.
- Tyne & Wear Metro, despite not striking, cannot run services between Pelaw and Sunderland because Network Rail owns the line.
With operators caught off guard, normal schedules won’t be restored in time. Commuters in London and Wales should prepare for continuing disruption.
