Default Tube Strike Info on LUL Website

At the moment (Tuesday 20:30ish) the Tube website is reporting 'Good

Is this really the case or just LUL being slow to communicate
information?


I assume it's because the site staff are on strike. The LU press centre
have promised an update to the media at 21:00 this evening, so perhaps
we'll get something posted then. The RMT site is, as usual, 4 days
behind the times.

The site has now been updated to show 'limited service' on all lines, so
obviously they were just being a bit slow or the strike took time to
take effect.

Address is valid, but messages are treated as junk. The opinions I express do
not necessarily reflect those of the educational institution from which I post.

It also says "Update at 21.00 hours - last trains will be leaving
central London shortly[,] after which there will be no further Tube
services tonight." This is on the LU home page. The LU and TfL "Live
Travel News" pages had no such info, but in the last few minutes have
started to put up "no service" messages for various lines.
