castlebar: I'm afraid I have to respectfully disagree with you there... The guard was not responsible for the drink or the drugs, but they weren't what killed her. The decision that he made was ultimately what killed her, so I can see exactly why what has transpired happened.

Just to let you know that rincew1nd and I are both unlikely to be able to post the quiz for Saturday morning... he's gone on holiday and I'm planning on trying to avoid doing myself a serious injury while doing a scout hike (first one I've ever done!).
If no-one has posted it, I'll try and do it in the morning.

I can't see any reason at the moment I can't make either aspect of this, so count me in.

Semi right... wrong station, and it's about Roundabouts but not quite what you've got.

Unfortunately, that means nothing... just because it's on a tfl.gov.uk domain does not mean that it's publicly accessible. It is perfectly possible, and feasible that *.tfl.gov.uk resolves through DNS to completely different IP addresses internally and externally. =

Do TFL update the online Journey Planner with details of weekend engineering disruption? The reason I ask is that the Met was closed from Harrow on the Hill - Aldgate yesterday, and I was trying to journey plan a journey from Great Missenden - Uxbridge. I clicked the Journey Planner bit, and it suggested 'lots' of trains, but with a note underneath suggesting that there was planned engineering works and not to trust the journey planner. This was fine, except... when you viewed the Line disruption, there was a link at the bottom to 'replan your journey' which took you straight back to the Journey Planner with the same message about not trusting it! I stupidly didn't take a screenshot of the message though

I'm just wondering if there's any reason for the internal orange light signifying that the doors are open on the Bakerloo line trains? i spotted it yesterday, and it was the first time I'd ever seen anything like that... Especially as it was right next to the PA speaker...
I guess it could be for people hard of hearing?

Still not quite there... you need to think historically on the reasoning, although you're getting closer.

Do you mean today? If so, the service appears to be back to normal today (bar the planned engineering works)

I saw a version of these on the 73ts yesteray, and an S-Stock, where they appear to be applied to the end doors.
Unfortunately, both my housemte and I came to the conclusion that the ones on the end just look like the cab doors have been vandalised, rather than being obvious as a poppy.
While I commend the efforts, I'm not sure the execution has been fully thought through.

Had an odd occurence on the Picadilly line today, which almost looked like Selective Door Opening, but I didn't think they had that...
I think it was Hatton Cross and Heathrow Terminal 4, when the driver opened the door only half the doors in the front car opened - the one nearest the driving cab AND half of the one in the middle stayed shut and the rest opened.
The driver realised at Terminal 4 as he got out, and managed to open them again, but I didn't think this was possible...
Any explinations?
Edited by SE13 to correct the spelling of PICCADILLY
