Yeah, just put 4G or 5G in the tunnels is all I'm really bothered about. Nothing worse than sitting about on the platform at Monument for 15 minutes with no signal.

(27 Feb 2023, 1:59 pm)Adrian EE users, and users of any virtual operators that use their network, have been able to get 4G/5G in the central section tunnels for a while now. It works perfectly from my experience.
I thought it'd have been a partnership, but it was pointed out to me that it was installed and is maintained commercially by EE. At least the proof of concept is there now, if any other operators decide to do the same.

(28 Feb 2023, 7:34 pm)Storx Nexus wouldn't accept the delivery if there was graffiti mind. It was removed at Tyne Yard by Arriva Care hence it coming in clean on the video after you posted. Believe they refused units in the refurbs which had been tagged.

The Metro is currently closed between Brockley Wins and Jarrow, and they said there will be trains between Brockley Wins and South Hylton, but are they just the trains which are currently stuck on that line and can't go to the depot. Also what about driver change overs how do they do that?
God hope that none break down in the coming 5 days
