"Nearly 150 people were trapped for more than two hours when a Tube
train got stuck underground in north London.
Less than a perfect way to end your bank holiday. The evacuation
finished at 2:50am.
If they were delayed for 2 hours and they didn't get until 3am then it
must have been the last train of the day. I am surprised that it had
150 people on it.
I'm not remotely surprised. I would have expected it to have rather more
given it had just left Highbury - there's a lot of people use the line
north of there even late at night.
Anyway it's a bloody mess that this has happened again on the Victoria
Line and at Highbury. I imagine this incident may well "bring the pains
on" given previous formal investigations into serious incidents
involving evacuations.
