the runaway train ran over the hill ...

[butters]

13 minutes, through 6 stations, 4 miles, commuter-busy time, narrowly missed colliding with a passenger train

friday the 13th?

I rather think the RMT are overplaying it. The control room staff made all the right decisions.

possibly. hype will spread as always.

and yes, i suppose they did.

but the trains were basically told 'shut your doors and head off away, asap!'
it'll be interesting to find out what really happened here, and it's good that the safety plans in place were sound and followed. things might have got very very nasty.
