Default Potential Tube strikes - how widespread?

I shall be in London for a good bit of next week, and I notice warnings
of strikes on the Underground network. Now, the TfL website tells me
that: "We will run whatever Tube services we can on those four days,
based on the staff that sign into their shifts".


Latest from tfl


Tuesday 25 August
Tube services will run as normal for most of tomorrow but will stop
running at around 18:30, so please complete your Tube journey by this
time and travel earlier if possible. Tube services are expected to be
exceptionally busy between 16:30 and 18:30.

Wednesday 26 August
We will run as many Tube services as possible according to how many staff
sign onto their shifts. However, most Tube services are unlikely to run
at all and those that do run may only serve some stations, and may only
run for part of the day. Please check our website and Twitter accounts
for updates on what is running. Extra bus and river services will run,
but all other public transport services and roads will be much busier
than usual. Please travel outside the morning and evening peaks if you can.

I'm glad to hear that the strikes have been called off!
