Perhaps it has something to do with wheelchair users not being able to reach
them.


I can't remember when I've ever seen someone in a wheelchair on the
tube. DLR yes , tube no.


Sorry to disappoint you but in the past two weeks, I've noticed 3
wheelchair users getting on my train.

Deep level tubes and all (Piccadilly)


I travel on the picc everyday. Never seen a wheelchair user once.
Besides which I can't see how they'd get out at most of the stations
given the drop from the train to the platform and the lack of lifts at
most of them.
