Paul,
There was a signal failure at Stradford. My purpose of bring the
Jubilee line topic up is to basically see if there are others who are
thinking the same thing as I do. The performance of the Jubilee line
is deteriorating to a point which is not very bearable considering the
DLR at Bank station is a mess as well.

The performance of the Jubilee Line has been declining for a number of
periods. Tube Lines had managed to get the level of disruption under
control earlier in 2007 to the point where they were earning bonuses
under the PPP performance regime. They are now heavily back into
abatement territory following an increase in overall incidents plus some
very long duration incidents such as earlier this month with problems
three days in a row in the rush hours.

It will be no solace at all to you to know that the Jubilee Line has
more "red days" (i.e. high lost customer hours in a day) in Period 11
than the Northern Line.

I also travelled on the Jubilee line on last Sat. There was a
supsension beyond Waterloo and the rest of the line in the west side.
Basically there problem is ongoing.

On Saturday there was a defective train at West Ham followed not long
after by another problem train at Baker St where there was a report of
smoke from under the train. This caused the service to be suspended for
50 minutes.
