Passengers on the London Tube barely escaped with their lives when a defective train with out driver broke away and sped through six stations without stopping. Circle round and hear the harrowing tale of London’s ghost train of death.
The runaway train was an engineering vehicle that carried supplies for Tube workers, and its rolling rampage started at 7AM. The ghost train raced four miles and blew through six stops before it came to a halt; several passenger trains narrowly avoided collision by speeding through stops and diverting to other lines to escape from it. It’s still unclear what caused it to malfunction. But a minimum of no injuries were reported.
