West Croydon - Southern trains running through without stopping.

[Railcar]

Today, Southern services were running through West Croydon station without stopping . According to Southern's website, this was because of 'London Underground strike action means some stations that Great Northern, Southern and Thameslink call at will be closed', which is a bit odd because West Croydon is not an Underground station, and the Overgound (TfL) services were running. Indeed, on this morning's Southern train, the driver mentioned suggested off at Norwood Junction and taking an Overgrounf train to West Croydon. Are the station staff at West Croydon RMT members? If so, who opened the station for Overground passengers?

378s self dispatch so unaffected by RMT strike at ARL which includes dispatch staff.
GTR still want manual dispatch at West Croydon (but not at loads of other places) which wasn’t available due to said strike.
