"This is because a number of stations remain unfit for handover. ...
with Whitechapel being the furthest behind. Here, the problem isn’t just
fit-out but construction – sources suggest that the station is still not

the JLE before it opened. That substation explosion seems very fishy to me. I
find it hard to believe experienced electrical engineers could accidentally
get it so badly wrong.
