Are there any special precautions taken on the Tube for the first train

On the Wuppertal Schwebebahn the first *train of the day now runs
empty after a similar incident killed 4 people in 1999 (can't remember
where I read this).

(and Germany's other fatal monorail accident involved a train hitting
a left-behind maintenance wagon)

For a few days after (and possibly still, but I haven't been that way)
there was a very much more severe than usual speed restriction between
Deptford Bridge and Greenwich.

I don't know if that's because of track damage or a case of locking
the stable door.
