Finsbury park:
Southbound victoria line platform rammed - people queueing on the stairs.
Give up , got to Kings X on piccadilly to get northern line.


The Northern City into Moorgate had a signal failure on the way to
Drayton Park which was causing delays and diversions. Probably a lot of
extra people trying to get on the tube.


So, technically, the Tube didn't have any problems and was therefore
running a "good" service?


It's whether the trains are running on time, not how crowded they are.

And sometimes things are better than they claim - last week I was on the
Bakerloo and the signage and tannoys said they had cancelled the service
north of somewhere like Queens Park, but on the train the driver said
the disruption had now been cleared.
