London Underground Facing Prosecution Over Runaway Northern Line Train
Submitted by Admin on 21 May, 2012 - 02:30London Underground and Tube Lines are to be prosecuted by the Office Of Rail Regulation following a runaway engineering train on the northern line.
Back in August 2010, the defective engineering train ran backwards through six stations after it separated from the train which was towing it off of the line.
A collision with a passenger train was averted thanks to the quick actions of control room staff and train operators on the day.
