I have not heard of the condition of the poor drivers of those
trains! especially the driver of the Picc train as the bomb was in
his carriage he must be in a terrible state!!


On the contrary, there were a number of news reports that said that the
Piccadilly driver was able to lead some passengers from the front of the
first car forwards along the track to Russell Square. At
http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article...686310,00.html, it says
he used a belt as a tourniquet to stem bleeding from a passenger's
severe leg wound.

According to a TfL press release yesterday, "One London Underground
employee was injured in yesterday's attacks. He is currently in a
critical condition." It gave no further details.
