Where would they get the drivers and trains from at such short notice?
(We have to have at least 2 weeks notice of change of duties).
Don't they have some extra stock available? (above number needed for
normal peak hour service?)
No. Trains are often cancelled for unavailable stock as it is. Just
because you might see one or two sat in a depot doesn't mean they are
actually available for service. After the 7/7 bombings, the Circle has
had one train regularly cancelled due to the lack of that one train.
Is there any emergency procedure to recall staff to work?
No.
