Incidentally, TfL (LO or LU)would probably do a better job of looking after
the Moorgate tunnels:

This needs its own thread!


The haze that can be seen in tunnels via train headlights on many tube lines
would probably be called a serious smog incident if it was above ground.
I'm pretty sure that mixture of brake dust and general ****e cannot be good
for the lungs.


Do theystill run the tunnel cleaning train and if so how often? Is
the haze worse than when the cleaning was done manually?
