Members!
I'm travelling to Heathrow on Saturday 6th via Tottenham Hale and Finsbury Park, will the strike action close any of these stations?
Thanks in advance

Finsbury is due to get travel ambassadors, so should remain open. Tottenham Hale is too early to call - it ultimately depends on what staff book on for duty. It's likely to be prioritised, but not as much as gateway stations within Z1.
Liverpool Street - if an option - may be a better choice - also getting travel ambassadors.

Does anyone know which stations are to close on Sunday? I think I will need to use the Northern Line between KCSP and LB and the Victoria Line or possibly Thameslink

I think I will need to use the Northern Line between KCSP and LB and the Victoria Line or possibly Thameslink As above, it is impossible to say what stations will be closed until the staff turn up for work. Both KX and London Bridge are due to have ambassadors, though, so should remain open. |

Thanks jack, that's really useful! Will Heathrow T123 be ok? I'm travelling evening of Saturday due to arrive Heathrow at about 8pm |

It was "currently taking place" according to the PA at Canning Town about 40 minutes ago!

BBC News twitter feed says the planned action has been suspended so far as train and station ops are concerned (confirmed by TfL Travel Alerts feed) but that the engineering side action continues.
