Default Regent's Park underground station lifts and sign spelling? Need pics!

I'm not exactly sure.

My normal experience of Tube trains going through temporarily closed
stations is that they may slow to 5-10 miles, but they don't stop. I guess
that they are similar to draw up signals in that they will clear if
approached at a certain speed, assuming that there is no train ahead of the
one in the station.

When I've been on tube journeys through temporarily closed stations, the
train came to a full stop, but began moving again after barely a second's
pause - I guessed the signalling/tripcock systems at such stations were
designed on the assumption that train would stop there?
