Not really that big a deal though, is it?

It's certainly a lot easier to fix than those tiny windows, cramped
interior due to thick walls and rock hard seats angled so that you can't
sit in them.

Oh, you can sit in them. If you can't, try harder, or consult someone who
has more experience at sitting down. No, they aren't comfortable (they
*really* aren't comfortable), but how long are you planning on spending on
a Victoria line train in one go anyway?

If you want to moan about the 2009 stock, the reliability so far would be
my suggestion of where to start!

Regarding moans about the Victoria Line, it would be nice if they
could fix the platform indicators so that they actually correspond
with the destination of the train. I have lost count of the number of
times I have stood on the platform at Kings Cross with the platform
indicator showing Seven Sisters, and yet when the train arrives it
shows Walthamstow Central. It also happens the other way round. For
information, the destination on the front of the train is more
reliable than what is shown on the platform indicators. Isn't
technology wonderful?
