Emergency evacuation of London Bridge Station 25 Jan 2010

[@Trivvy]

The last thing you need is everyone running in a mass panic, resulting in stampede. The calm way in which people are reacting here is exactly how it should be done.

[@Steveoficial680]

Half an emergency station London Bridge

[@daspoppy]

As a someone who has lived in London 13 years when an announcement doesn't use please the shit just got real!

[@ellacoyw07]

It did though

[@jnicknickj2006]

I was one of the last people out as I had my headphones on whilst sitting on a stationary train. It all seemed pretty calm to me. What was annoying was that everyone blocked the exits making it slow to get out because they wanted to get back in again as soon as possible.

[@CoastwayWill]

Okay! 8 years on and I have possibly found the reason - It was a chemical/gas leak (not sure which one)

[@LGBRailways]

Why is that man carrying a chair seat but no legs?😂

[@autistictechgirl]

That voice and alarm is terrifying like out of a nightmare

[@Amandamoo73]

if i had heard that alarm going off i would have shit myself!i'm amazed by how calm everyone was!

[@robbiemorrison7085]

The old London Bridge station brings back so many memories.

[@wolfeywolf7467]

London bridge is falling down falling down falling down. Everyone on London bridge must evacuate. That should be a song

[@julianheald8661]

Too good!!

[@commonsense3482]

I am surprised that the forecourt was not closed to traffic with taxis and busses told to vacate or be blocked in until otherwise instructed.

[@14thcentury]

What other people would be like in this situation: AHHHHHHHHHHH What I would be like: Ooooh? Whats happening???

[@taylorbradshaw]

@Amandamoo73 It doesn't neccasarily mean someone has died, it means that someone has gone under the train. They may have slipped or jumped.

[@WORLD8NSH5KNIGHT1]

London Bridge Station from this angle looks a bit like Birmingham New Street.

[@jk09345568]

Could have been anything from a fire to a person on the tracks.

[@DeKat-84]

This is the only time online I've ever heard a female voice giving the inspector sands/evacuate announcement. I'm not being sexist or against it... just an observation that it's usually a man with a very low voice. It's quite refreshing actually and I'd probably take more notice of this than the usual droll gent that just sounds bored with the job. Thumbs up TfL/London Bridge. :-)

[@AutoUnder]

Since then the voice evac system was replaced as part of the redevelopment of the station and is now a man’s voice

[@CalumEWilliams]

So why were they evacuating?

[@train_dude_youtube9]

What happened?

[@Gamercrazygirl2468]

if its a false alarm and they say 'Theres a bomb' or 'Theres a serious fire' then people would leave calmly they will panic and it might become a real emergency if people panic and run out

[@04smallmj]

A reported emergency? How vague is that!

[@OwenR10]

Was it a test why did everyone have to evacuate the station

[@nannydawn17]

so this is what it looks like when they evacuate a train station

[@Amandamoo73]

is 'one under' death by tube train?

[@m0dernrailways]

I think I'd rather leave though and make sure I am safe and be scared then be there and find there is a real emergency!

[@jk09345568]

Amandamoo73 No One Under means that there is a person on the tracks. Sometimes yeah if that person was hit then yeah that person is dead. Dead as in killed by a tube train.

[@cjps56]

One under means someone was hit by a tube train look it up or watch "The Tube" series

[@ethanch3011]

I'm afraid cjps is right. I was at King's Cross when there was a One Under there. It's even on here.

[@nannydawn17]

If someone was under the tracks they would just close a few platforms not the whole station

[@natalia3966]

why did you have to evacuate?

[@2minstral]

Looks like they are getting ready to pull an event.

[@Guest1337-d]

The London bridge alarm going off I would have shit my self in toilet

[@Eliorrrtr]

OMG I don’t understand what’s going on

[@Dextersamuels.]

Its Was Probably Just A Abandoned Bag

[@sandrafalkosky8139]

what happened

[@Loopylu80]

i was here about 3 months ago!!! :( came in from gatwick then used the tube to south east london !! :( its terrible

[@kaiyan246]

What actually happened. why was there an evacuation?

[@autistictechgirl]

Yan Grant I wondered the same

[@squishyswamp7896]

Yan Grant I think someone accidentally triggered it. Or maybe there was some killing scene.

[@footyball66]

A pigeon was on the track....causing the emergency.

[@squishyswamp7896]

BORIS JEFFERSON why do they need to seriously set the alarm off because a pigeon was on the tracks?

[@TheArkamedBat]

@@squishyswamp7896 Why a person falls of the platform and they have to evacuate?

[@Dextersamuels.]

This Is A Golden Commen

[@ANDY0962]

bet you that bus driver was thinking, SHIT ive never seen so many passengers!

[@Steveoficial680]

Imagine she’s a stratus ETA off for Fire alarm

[@InfinityVR2]

It sounds like the science museum’s fire alarm

[@adilhossain8198]

Who’s voice is that

[@olivers_level_crossing_uk]

The gent voice evacuation

[@CoolDudeX-wc6sg]

Please listen to the instructions of the *Staff* More like listen to the instructions of gandalf's *Staff*

[@cathykinn4516]

2023. Overcrowding. What would have happened if there had been an emergency?

[@jk09345568]

No One Under means that there is a person on the tracks.

[@mohitmasand]

One under means someone has been runover by a train and the BTP must investigate.

[@Ultra-t3o]
