Does anyone know if trains were evacuated between stations, or did
Greenwich kick in as planned to provide enough power to move trains
into stations?

I was on a Victoria line train that pulled out of Victoria, got about half
way into the tunnel and braked suddenly. Waited ten minutes and eventually
told to evacuate via part of train still in station. The announcement said
something about a power surge. And then about controller telling him not
to move.
