How often to they update the tube map?

No, I don't think so. In fact I've just closed my browser, clicked on
the link again and it has come up again (using Firefox). If you still

Walk-through trains

Sorry - not sure exactly what they're called, but why is it only the SSL
and Overground that are to get trains that you can walk all the way
through (like a bendy bus)?

Is there something on the...

Wandsworth Town station gateline

It wouldn't solve it immediately, but over a few days or weeks it would
weed the troublemakers out of the population.

I dunno, about 20 times per day I get asked "Where is platform /x/?" If...

Class 378 in service

The concept is the same as DLR - i.e. the guard is in control of one
doorway (i.e. two door leaves that slide across). From what I saw today
the guard stepped out on to the platform to ensure...

Another Oyster problem

Sadly the software doesn't work like that - it only cares about
closing and/or extending the current journey. Your trip into Canary

I assume he got there by DLR - via a Tower Hill to Tower Gateway OSI.

Yes, that's correct. Marble Arch (touch in) - Tower Hill (touch out);

Also that there's now consideration given to covering up the rear

than during the day, so if they...
