Interesting. I thought the Underground still took its juice from Lots Road
(ie its own dedicated power station). Or is that closed now?


Lots road closed 18 months ago. There is still a back up facility at
Greenwich IIRC.


Someone better look into that 'back up' then, eh?

As far as I am aware it kicked in and provided power to shunt the trains
back into platforms with.
