Default Piccadilly Line - Emma Clarke Announcements

Gareth Packer wrote:
Morning,

As you will be aware, Emma Clarke is currently the announcer for the
Picaddily Line (also the Central, Bakerloo and Hammersmith and City
lines if i remember correctly)


No, the on-train announcements on the Piccadilly Line were recorded by
an Arnos Grove driver.

Im creating a route for BVE, and short of riding the whole tube
journey, does anyone know where I might be able to download these
samples?


It would be quite authentic not to have the announcements. They don't
seem to be used by the majority of drivers, probably because they cause
the destination displays in the cars to go blank. (Are LU/TubeLines
ever going to cure that?)
