Subway disruptions

July 17, 2008 4:49 AM | Comments (1)

We in Singapore should be thankful for having a relatively incident-free subway service. Of course, the London subway is much older and complex and so it is understandable that there would be more disruptions. We experienced line closures over the weekend for planned engineering works, but when this notice came up it shocked some of us.

Person under a train?!

Was it a suicide attempt? An accident? A joke? We never found out.

"Person under train" is pretty common for the tube, sadly. I always wondered why they never decided to install doors between the tracks and the platform like the MRT has. Simple solution, shouldn't cost the earth to implement either.

(I know some of the newer stations, like Canary Wharf, have the doors, but why not all!)
