Default Bottled water on tube

John wrote in message ...
Last year our mate Ken made lots of noises about requiring TfL to get on
with cooling the tube, etc. It all seems to have gone quiet - anyone
know whether any progress has been made?



Im sure around July/August when it gets really hot the idea will
spring up again.
London Underground want people to carry water with them incase a train
breaks down and due to their pure inefficency and passing the buck it
takes them two hours to move the train to somewhere people can get
off.
Here is an idea and far cheaper than handing out water to people. Fit
all deep level trains with water in sealed bottles for use in
emergencies such as trains being stuck underground during the summer.
