2 obvious questions:
1) Was there train operator error?
2) Should jumper availability be reviewed? e.g. Put them in a locked
cupboard with a notice indicating the criteria for opening the cupboard.
The expected return period of such a cost (delay in powering the train)
would have to be balanced against the cost of more availability.


Wonder if it would be possible to have some sort of creep mode that
would work off the train batteries that could move it forward a couple
of metres at a crawl on level ground. It would probably drain the
battery in seconds but would solve gapping issues if the bedwetters
have decided gap leads are too dangerous to be used.
