Maybe it'll be like the DLR, with driver's control panels, but not a
separated cab? But I think the mock-up does have a cab, contrary to
Boris's claims.
Where is the mock-up anyway, and how long will it be there for?
On a computer. For as long as someone keeps a copy of the file.
There also appears to be a small model:

'The New Tube for London exhibition is at King's Cross St Pancras
Underground station, Northern ticket hall, from Thursday 9 October until
Sunday 16 November.'
I see. I was hoping that they had a mock-up to scale. I'm sure that will
happen, though no time soon.
Siemens did, but TfL's own design mock-up doesn't. The final chosen design
will probably have a full-size mock-up, of course to show Londoners what's
coming.
They had one for the 09ts at Euston, IIRC. I also saw one for new
rolling stock at the end of one line on the Rome Metro.
