Another Tube derailment - Camden Town

It makes me wish and hope my next visit to London is as soon as possible so I can once again enjoy the near death experince that is London Underground (this could possibly contain some scarcasm) And when was the last time somebody was killed on an Underground train (ignoring suicides)? I can't think of any since Moorgate. there have been deaths resulting from slips, trips, falls and dragging incidents near the platform edge (e.g. Holborn, Eastcote (I think), Hounslow East, Chalk Farm). This explains the emphasis on "stand behind the yellow line", stand clear, DMI messages about trains approaching, more mind the gap messages etc. All to do with the risk of accidents on the platform / train interface. I've seen people do incredibly stupid things near the track; including one man who actually jumped down into it when I asked him to stay behind the yellow line! Kat in Downtown Toronto |
