Just been watching the Tube (BBC 2012) and on the Upgrading the Tube episode on youtube (just search for The Tube - Upgrading the Tube (Series 1 Episode 4) (BBC Series 2) it appears at 41:08 that the driver is manually driving the 2009 stock. Didn't think you could do this when the train is in service on the line; I know that you do manually drive the train to the depot. I'm not an expert on the 2009 stock, but can you actually override the ATO by moving the handle as he was demonstrating how easy they are compared to the other stock? Good watch by the way if you're interested.
