'Runaway train' on London Tube

But I suspect - though I don't have a gradient profile - that it flattens out before Euston. Don't the underground tube stations generally have up-gradients on the approach and down-gradients on exit to assist braking and acceleration respectively? Charlie AFIK, only the LU Central Line. |
