London Strikes

International

LONDON_Leaders of Britain's National Union of Railwaymen (NUR) called off a day-old national rail strike yesterday after their stoppage brought transport chaos to London, already gripped by a week-old-subway shutdown.

Delegates at the NUR's annual conference in Plymouth, a coastal resort in southwest England, voted 47-30 to suspend the strike after thousands of their 117,500 members defied the strike call and kept some trains running.
