Something no one in the media or on here seems to have mentioned is
that the only reason the drivers are noticing so many tripcock failures
is that so many of these overpaid agitators are going through red
lights! Perhaps while they're fixing the trains they should consider
getting the drivers retrained. How exactly can you miss a red light in
a slow tube train usually (on the northern line) in a dark tunnel? They
don't have to worry about other traffic , roadside distractions,
steering etc like a bus driver but if a bus driver went through a red
light I don't think anyone would have much time for him blaming the bus
for not putting its brakes on!
Perhaps if you tried driving a tube train instead of pontificating like
Conor, you'd be wiser, and have no need to say anything.
