"A runaway Northern Line train went through six stops on a 13-minute journey on the Tube this morning, with other Underground trains having to be cleared out of its path. "



There is a video, but it won't play where I am.

Plays here (Canada) OK. What's your browser?

The video is mostly stock footage.

cheers, wolf k.

It's FF, or IE6 (yuk)(company laptop). I'm in a hotel in Korea.(yuk)

Not a browser problem, then.

I don't know whether to commiserate, but maybe a couple hours railfanning would be in order. As long as the Korean cops don't get upset.

That would be nice, but I am on geoje island, which has no sign of railways. Shipyards, yes. Trains, no. The ferry sailed under this bridge on the way here:

but it's not yet in use. The bridge is a road bridge, the railway on that page is between Busan and it's airport. Nice to see peeps buildng railways, mind. They are building a TGV style network, and the national operator has grandiose plans to connect to Europe when the country is re-unified (!) :
