On Friday, the Rail, Maritime and Transport (RMT) union announced that it would cancel the 48-hour strike that London Underground station staff had been planned to participate in this weekend. This strike was expected to cause several train station closures between Saturday night and Tuesday morning. Instead of this strike, RMT said that tube maintenance staff would hold seven 24-hour long walk-outs that will begin next week. Employee’s of the London Underground have been in an ongoing dispute with their employer over job losses and the closing of ticket offices.
