:03:46. > :03:50.the strike to be called off. That is right. These talks collapsed at 4pm.

:03:51. > :03:54.As far as we know, there are no plans for any more. If it goes

:03:55. > :03:58.ahead, what effect will it have on the bigger picture? The powers that

:03:59. > :04:03.be here at the headquarters say these changes are vital. They need

:04:04. > :04:11.more modern, efficient equipment. Trains running 24 hours a dasmt the

:04:12. > :04:15.plan, as it stands will compromise jobs. We have been here before.

:04:16. > :04:23.We've had strikes and changes. As ever, it is the public stranded in

:04:39. > :04:41.of their shock after a large sinkhole opened up outside their

:04:42. > :04:45.house, swallowing up their daughter's car. Luckily no`one was

:04:46. > :04:50.injured. It is thought heavy rain may be partly to blame.

:04:51. > :04:56.Investigators are investigating the cause. Imagine waking up to this ` a

:04:57. > :05:04.hole that has swallowed your car right outside your doorstep. That is

:05:05. > :05:08.what happened to Liz and Phil Conran from High Wycombe. They were

:05:09. > :05:13.confronted by the sinkhole when they were woken up by their daughter on

:05:14. > :05:19.Sunday morning. We heard a piercing stream at `` scream at 7am. She was

:05:20. > :05:25.looking out the window and saying, my car has gone. Meanwhile thisle

:05:26. > :05:32.pit has left neighbours literally speechless. We saw it on television,

:05:33. > :05:36.and I went... Gobsmacked! What could have created this hole? About 100

:05:37. > :05:40.years ago this part of the Chilterns used to be regularly mined for clay.

:05:41. > :05:48.Those pits were filled in and the houses were built on top. The last

:05:49. > :05:53.four months' worth of heavy winter rain have eroded the of sub soil,

:05:54. > :05:58.leaving this in its wake. Lucky no`one here was hurt. In the United

:05:59. > :06:05.States this hole of swallowed a car with the driver still in it. She

:06:06. > :06:08.escaped alive. In Chicago a road buckled eating three vehicles. Back

:06:09. > :06:13.in Buckinghamshire, the local authority is now investigating the

:06:14. > :06:15.collapse. The Conrans hope it will avoid a whole lot of trouble in the

:06:16. > :06:22.future. Incredible. OK, time for a look at

:06:23. > :06:28.the weather with Wendy. What have you got for us? More rain. It is

:06:29. > :06:32.edging into Berkshire and Surrey at the moment. We started with scenes

:06:33. > :06:36.like this ` rosy skies. Through this week it will turn stormy from time

:06:37. > :06:39.to time. Here is the rain that I mentioned it is just broken up as it

:06:40. > :06:44.has come across the country. There could be one or two heavier bursts.

:06:45. > :06:49.It will clear away and there'll be clear skies and temperatures down to

:06:50. > :06:53.two or three Celsius. As we start tomorrow, watch out for one or two

:06:54. > :06:57.isolated, heavy showers, maybe with hail and thunder in them. They are

:06:58. > :07:01.tending to clear away during the afternoon, leaving us with dry and

:07:02. > :07:05.sunny conditions. Temperatures between 7`9 Celsius. A deep area of

:07:06. > :07:09.low pressure during the heavy rain that will go through overnight into

:07:10. > :07:12.Tuesday and Wednesday and into Wednesday itself there'll be strong

:07:13. > :07:15.winds as well. The Met Office has weather warnings in place for that.

:07:16. > :07:18.Thankfully it will calm down a little bit as we go through the end

:07:19. > :07:22.of the week. Thank you very much.

:07:23. > :07:26.And that's it for this evening. We are back tomorrow morning during

:07:44. > :07:47.wind and rain to come. The story is dominated by two potent areas of low

:07:48. > :07:50.pressure. There are parts of the world that need the rain at the

:07:51. > :07:56.moment, let me take you to California. That has arrived in the

:07:57. > :08:00.form of patchy rain over the past 24 hours or so. The reason I take you

:08:01. > :08:07.here is the cloud responsible for it, well that will develop into
