Just curious, but I know in the past if there was a fire on a train, passengers would be moved to safety in an adjacent carriage, which would be safer due to having the interconnecting doors closed... how would that work on a 378 (or the new Met stock for that matter) as they are open plan throughout with no corridor-doors or anything? There doesn't appear to be any way of preventing smoke etc. travelling the whole length of the unit
I'm sure this has all been thought about during the building of this stock but was wondering what special features they have for this event if it were to occur, especially as they operate on lines with lots of tunnels?
