UPDATE: This from Network Rail...
Network Rail head of operations and customer service, Robin Gisby said:
"The signallers strike is off and train services next week will run as normal. This is good news for the millions of passengers who rely on us every day, and for our freight users and for the country as a whole.
"A dispute with the unions remains however, and we have a responsibility to our people to continue talking to the unions to find a settlement that works for us all."
UPDATE: This from the Archer...
Signallers can’t strike, maintenance staff still can!

Read between the lines "Services will be normal until something fails and then there will be no service until strike over."
UPDATE: This from Channel 4 News...
Bob Crow, general secretary of the RMT, said: "This judgment is an attack on the whole trade union movement and twists the anti-union laws even further in favour of the bosses.
"Workers fighting for the principle of a safe railway have had the whole weight of the law thrown against them. Our executive will meet this evening with a recommendation for a re-ballot."
