There was a report that one of the drivers leading passengers along the
track told them to avoid touching the live rails, but I didn't read of
any injries caused by contact with a live rail.

He might have told them to avoid the juice rails, but it's a damn sure
bet, he wouldn't have detrained without discharging traction current
which by the way puts on the tunnel lights. Further he would have laid
down a SCD for added safety.

I just wondered if this could have happened to anybody on the Edgware
Rd train. I thought that some people were actually blown out of the
train or did I misread that bit.
