The Standard's report says "It is the third train safety alert in three
months", which had me wondering what the other two were. I remember the
runaway rail grinder on the Northern Line, which the Standard mentions,
but it says that "the same 90-tonne train [i.e. the grinder] was
involved in a similar incident six weeks earlier on the Jubilee line".
I don't remember that one at all. Did I miss it or is this yet another
blunder by Dick Murray?
I note that in the online version of the story, the alleged Jubilee line
"similar incident" has become a "similar drama", and they've added
"although a London Underground spokeswoman denied the train was out of
control", which suggests that it was something quite different.
