How can you not understand what that means?


Its very difficult to stall an electric motor so it won't turn and
impossible to stall a dozen of them simultaniously. Its basically
another LU buzzword bingo catch all phrase for a buggered up train
which could be anything from sized brakes to it becoming gapped and it
tells us nothing. Why they can't just say its broken down instead of
trying to sound in-the-know when they probably don't have a clue by
using a word such as stalled is anyones guess.
