If running over the fox displaced a conductor rail, or removed (or
damaged) the collector shoes or tripcocks on the train, you would be
apoplectic with rage.

Foxes are generally only the size of a collie. I can't see why one would
damage a train or track when suiciders seem to be decapitated quite nicely
without problems.

And we see enough of that already, thank you. ;-)

Perhaps if LU could run something approaching a decent service on the
piccadilly line I wouldn't. Luckily I don't have to suffer it most days but I
heard on the travel news earlier that holborn station was closed for a few
hours in the rush hour and there were delays on the Raynors lane branch yet
again because of yet another signal failure. And this is the most expensive
metro system in the world to travel on. Its a sad farce.
