You Are Driving Too Slowly!

Bakerloo Line

Yes, you won't believe this but drivers on the Bakerloo have been told off and told an item will go on their 'HOLISTIC RECORD' for entering Willesden Junction too slowly on the northbound causing the wrong road trainstop to raise and rear trip the train.

Now correct us if we are wrong, but aren't you meant to slow down if stopping at a station! Aren't you meant to drive taking conditions into account, rain, sleet, wintersun and so on?

THe Bakerloo Line does not have a minimum speed on entering Willesden or any other platform.So drivers tell management to sort the timing on the section out and let us drive.
