Minutes later there was another scare at the same station after passengers reported a suspicious package on a Tube.</p> Some Tube stations remained closed after the Tube and bus bombings of two weeks ago, which continued to cause disruption.</p> Hundreds of thousands of workers faced another difficult journey home this evening because of the fresh travel problems on the Tube, which is used by around three million people every day.</p> Meanwhile, Midland Mainline train services were running normally today following disruption yesterday because of a suspicious package near St Albans train station.</p> The train operator said passengers unable to travel yesterday could use their train ticket to travel today, or claim a refund on their ticket.</p>
