I remember when Stratford before the arrival of the DLR and Jubilee line, sheer the tube platforms are now was waste ground, there was evidence of western curve with buildings at low level after the Central line had arrived, the low level platforms had a train service to North Woolwich.
I remember when the Jubilee line was manually driven those tall rectangular things at the end of the platforms on the JLE used to display a yellow or green aspect but I still have no idea what the purpose for that was. If anyone knows what it was for please let me know :)
Maybe from the best of my knowledge, it was used to show platform staff the status of the signal the driver is seeing. So yellow means it’s red which = don’t dispatch the train yet. Green means the signal is green so = it’s safe to dispatch the train. In case you didn’t know, it’s the equivalent of a criminal offence in the railway industry to dispatch a train against a red signal! This has now been replaced by the white light in the middle of the platform which works together with the ATO system to show that the train is ready to depart for platform staff. As to what the rest of the rectangle box is for, I don’t know but it looks like it contains electrical or communications equipment.
Best video on the Jubilee line yet-sound, photography, everything! But I'd like to know something: if the trains really accelerate this fast do they give standees time to belt themselves to the stanchions? Or do they all pile up at the rear end of the train? ;)
Funny enough, Londoners adapt to it, if you can stand in a 1996 stock train (Shown on this video and Jubilee line) You could stand on top of one (not recommended to try!!) I'm not good at it, I tend to stumble all the time, but never when I'm in the cab, there's enough things to hold onto in there that's not another person! lol
Very unlikely, not without a lot more automation of the other deep tube lines and a lot of platform modifications. The platform edge doors on the Jubilee Line platforms between Westminster and North Greenwich were part of the stations from construction.
I'm not a fan of the way tfl did the ATO on the Jubilee Line because it ruins they way they sounded because then the TBC, the brakes are both air and dynamic but the ATO uses only the dynamics which are weaker and destroy the motors.
Not true, the 1996 stock was designed to run on TBTC based ATO (For the original Westinghouse system) out of the factory, which by the same token means that the motors are now running unrestricted (max power) as originally intended. And as for the braking, the motors were also designed to run on dynamic because of the TBTC :)

Another brilliant cab ride!

I m sure some drives still manually drive it when I am older I want to manually drive it

I note the platform doors, and I imagine that they will eventually be installed at all Tube platforms.

TfL has stated that Piccadilly line should start getting them by 2026.
How fast do the trains go?
45-50mph on ATO, and 30mph on Manual
Rudy Roberts it’s faster than that
ッ 55-60 mph
Did you make a video
?
@EastCoastDVT no no my friend Anthony filmed this he uploaded it to his channel I asked if I could use the footage he said yes

camjkerman I don't like ATO either, it must but great strain on the motors

Do they ask you why you want to get in a cab
They no longer accept camera's, for safety and security reasons.
