While we're taking about the Victoria Line can someone fix the computer
to make the breaking less last minute and less fierce. It's the only

Please don't; I'd rather have the faster journey times. More
grab-rails can be installed if necessary.


I'm getting on a bit (brings out violin) and my back doesn't like all
the excitement of the unplanned roller coaster ride the Victoria Line
can be.

Roll on the invention of inertial dampers :-)


Fair enough, I see your point - and yes, I suppose the Victoria line
can be a bit jerky. Perhaps the new stock on the upgraded line will
manage to do the job in a smoother manner, without sacrificing the
speed.
