Went on the Vic again on Saturday and as train 11075 pulled out of Finsbury park NB, I noticed a man sitting in the back drivers cab, glaring ahead. What was he doing? He wasn't touching anything? I remember seeing people like this when the trains were first brought into use, but I have not seen this on the Vic since altleast November 2010? Can anyone explain???

Double ending for a quick turn round at destination.
Call point technician are two likely reasons.

Sat in the back cab staring ahead? Maybe he's a fan of j doors?  |

Maybe he's a fan of j doors? Perhaps he is, but who are we to judge? For all we know, he could have been sent to the naughty corner? ;D |

He was most likely a driver travelling back to Seven Sisters. There are several duties that require drivers to travel on the cushions, i.e. a Seven Sisters driver may finish his or her booked train work at Brixton then has to travel back to Seven Sisters to book off. Brixton drivers also have duties that finish at Seven Sisters.

He was probably glaring as the cab lights would have been on, yes? In the tunnels it would have been like being in a hall of mirrors!

Sat in the back cab staring ahead? Maybe he's a fan of j doors? wouldn't that be behind him? Now things are getting confusing here. If he was sitting in the drivers seat looking out of the drivers window then he is sitting backwards and looking forward. If he is the other way around then he is a contortionist and is looking forward backwards............. suddenly I've lost the will to live ;D |
