Obviously RMT members.

Apparently so.

"The Rail Maritime and Transport (RMT) union has pledged to back any
employee who refused to work normally on grounds of safety following the
latest explosions. Bob Crow, of the RMT, said "enormous pressure" was
put on Tube workers to continue working as normal following the blasts
and that staff had expected the entire network to be shut down. He
added: "At the emergency meeting today we were told that lines
apparently unaffected by the attacks should continue running." He said
they would be discussing these issues in a meeting with the mayor on
Friday."

LU say that the Bakerloo is running normally, but that the Piccadilly is
running only from Arnos Grove to Cockfosters.

Any comment from Arnos Grove staff on why the Piccadilly drivers are
taking a different line from their colleagues?
