I've not seen the video but yellow hi-vis are not worn by operational LU

staff; who only wear orange so best guess he will be a cleaner or a
passenger who happened to be wearing a hi-vi.

No sign of station staff or the useless ****er of a driver who couldn't be
arsed to open the doors until minutes later.

LU staff yet again demonstrating their complete gold plated incompetance when
there's an emergency situation.

Watching the video I don't think anyone comes out of it very well. Quite
why the camera operator kept filming instead of evacuating I don't know.
The staff appear (stress - appear) to be running around not really knowing
what to do. And what the woman who climbed out thought she was going to
achieve is beyond me.

The RAIB is now investigating the incident. See their bulletin
"Uncontrolled evacuation of a train at Holland Park station (London
Underground) 25 August 2013" at
http://www.raib.gov.uk/publications/...lland_park.cfm


(Their "Image of Holland Park station", which is there purely to
illustrate the inter-car barriers, appears to be of a surface station
somewhere else on the Central Line.)
