Miserable Monday for Tube commuters
12 April 2012
Tube commuters suffered a bad start to the week when the Victoria line opened two hours late today because of a track fault.
The line was suspended between Seven Sisters and Victoria until after 7am, when it restarted with severe delays into the peak period.
Shuttle services ran between Brixton and Victoria and Walthamstow Central and Seven Sisters until it reopened.
On London Overground, a broken-down train saw services suspended between South Tottenham and Barking during the morning peak.
Meanwhile, talks to avert a 24-hour Tube strike on November 29 over job cuts were continuing today.
