Well, you tell us - it was reported to be a signal failure which
caused it


Plus it would have been nice if LU had listened to what people were

saying
about using Charing X as a backup terminus instead of just closing the
jubilee platforms and walling up the escalators for no good reason.


Money?


It cost them money to do those things which it wouldn't have cost if
they hadn't


Oh change the record, please! Perhaps the people who had brains were

working
for that wonderful private company Westinghouse Signals, or then again,
obviously not!

Well if the company which supplies the signals is no good then use a
differnt company! After all, underground systems in plenty of other
cities around the world can manage it.
