So how do we find out about this, bugger all on the TfL site. That Ken

do.
I'd say that they got exactly what they deserved, or what Ken wished
upon them.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/london/6974841.stm seem to think
it's only the BCV lines that are affected, I assume they are just
being their usual selves and the SSL lines are also going to have
"issues"?


It now has a table down the page that lists the SSL as affected.

Though the main text of the article says: "Howard Collins, of London
Underground, warned that if the strike went ahead, services on the
Bakerloo, Central and Victoria lines would start being reduced from
about 1630 BST. But he assured commuters that the Jubilee, Northern
and Piccadilly lines would be running." - presumably ignoring the SSL
as it refers to a "tube strike" :-)
