As the trains can be fully automatic anyway, why have a Motorman on? Just
save money, this is obviously your aim.

Errrr Vic Line. Would you like to go on an underground train with no staff
on the train? Who will tell you what to do in emergency? Who will direct you
to the nearest exit when things go wrong? God (not one particular God I
hasten to add) forbid there are any more bombs, but I think that in it's
self is a fully justified reason to keep staff on trains.

Doesn't seem to a problem on Line 14 in Paris and soon on Line 1. Or
on the VAL system in Lyon, or soon on the L Line in New York.

On the Piccadilly Line train the majoirity of passengers were
evacuated by station staff from Kings Cross, not the Train
Operator.....
