    Commuter Sues TfL Over "Rammed Platforms"

    The amount they're going for doesn't seem that extortionate, so I imagine this is what they're after.

    The IKEA Tube Map walks - would anyone do them?

    Surely Geoff Marshall will at some point!

    Fear of being stuck on the underground without an announcement from tube driver. Pls help!

    It might help the OP to consider though that of the three 'incidences', all of them were just demonstrations of the Tube operating safely. Nothing accidental or out of control happened. Yes, unfortunately the OP didn't know what was happening, but it was all under control.

    Fear of being stuck on the underground without an announcement from tube driver. Pls help!

    What is it you're expecting to happen if you're stopped in the tunnel OP? I wouldn't see it as an 'issue', it just a fundamental function of a signalling system. It's there to keep trains apart, so it's routine for trains to be stopped by it. If anything I'm more concerned when there is an...

    TFL & "Managed Decline"

    To be fair, we should probably be glad that Albert hasn't climbed on top of, or glued himself to, said bus in order to save the planet! :lol:

    Oxford Circus station graffiti

    Unless they're retiring their tags, they've just made themselves the focus of the BTP graffiti team... Bet the 'artists' are gutted.

    LU Emergency Response Team

    I may be completely wrong, but isn't the driver a BTP PC? EDIT: According to this it is/was a BTP driver: https://tfl.gov.uk/info-for/media/press-releases/2012/february/incident-response-on-the-tube-to-be-boosted-under-blue-light-trial So technically it's the BTP driver that is using the lights.

    'The Tube' (TV program)

    Enjoyed that! It'll be interesting to see what the viewing figures are like over the course of the series. I hope it's not just enthusiasts watching by the end, as they covered a lot in the first episode and there are still five left! :D EDIT: And to stay on topic (which I've only just...

    'Runaway train' on London Underground

    This'll make for a good read when the RAIB report comes out (in about 7 years... :roll: :p ). I'd love to see some CCTV footage of it flying though the stations!
