On the Piccadilly line the brakes will apply no matter where you are, If your within station limits you deal with the alarm. If between stations there is an override button on the floor that you need to keep your foot on to get forward movement. This is right and don`t forget talk back as well before using foot switch on floor and all stations at the end of platforms have post with car numbers out of platforms whether stop and still in platform or carry on to next station.

In what way does a matrix of LEDs not constitute a 'dot-matrix' display? May be its how small the dot`s are very small same as a LED television. inside car displays are dot-matrix'.

My question though is this, does any line still use a system of combinations of lamps on its trains to indicate destinations? Yes - they're called dot matrix displays 73 t/stock is not dot matrix it is LED Destination.

HI all roythebus you are wrong 100andthirty is right when braking the reverser does not go in REV`S REHO brake works from the motor brake switch and regenerative braking and Metadyne braking are all a different kettle of fish.

HI you don`t have to rewire to cut the rheo brake out. On the old TEP AND CDU there was a cut out switch for the rheo brake long gone. We have no such cut out switch on the 73's. There are a couple of ways to stop the rheo applying but you wouldn't want to get caught doing so! Each train handles differently generally and if you get a particularly fast train, that generally means that the rheo is going to be pretty fierce so applying the minimum brake application in some instances will cause the wheels to lock. That's where braking technique comes into play. Hi yes you did years ago MOD and taken away because drivers always hand it cut, do you need photo evidence of this and how long have you been on the underground to not no this.

We have 20 MPH TSR's in place in the majority of the open sections. The thinking behind this is that the rheo brake won't kick in at that speed as it is deemed that that is causing a problem. There is also talk of rewiring the braking so there is no rheo application in service brake 1 position. HI you don`t have to rewire to cut the rheo brake out. On the old TEP AND CDU there was a cut out switch for the rheo brake long gone.

This is correct. The reason why is a closely guarded secret - and no, I'm not privy to why. Hi not much of a secret photos on Flickr going past hanwell and times on real train times.
