Default London PA Voice Emma Clarke F ired for Slamming Tube


Hi All,

Is it in fact Emma on the Northern Line? Her website says she's on

"pretty
much everything except the Jubilee Line, the Northern Line and Docklands
Light Railway" (though the PA on the Piccadilly doesn't sound like her).


The Jubilee Line has the distinction of having two different voices in its
announcements.

"The Next Station" and "This Station Is" is a new voice, with the "This
Train Terminates At" announcement being a different woman together - one who
used to do all the announcements on the 96 stock.

Of course, that was back in the days when the dot matrix displays on the 96
didn't scroll, but had annoying static messages that couldn't say very much
at all.

Best Wishes,
LEWIS
