On the tube, why are there only a finite number of reasons for delays with
very little explanation (and often different reasons at different stations)?
Does anyone have a complete list? So far I've got:
* Passenger action
* Person under a train
* Signal Failure
* Failure of safety equipment
* Late finish of engineering works
* Earlier delays
* Staff shortage

"Person taken ill" on the Bak last night.

This usually means someone fell onto the live rails and had to be
scraped off before they could start the trains again.
