London Underground explosions
 
It sounds like there have been at least 5 explosions/power surges on the London Underground.

Just watching it on Sky at the mo. At first it was one, then two but now they say five incidents.

Someone who was involved in the Aldgate Station "incident" is saying there was a big hole in the side of the train and "bits of train" all over the place. It sounds like it could be worse than first reports. This man is talking about "limbs" lying around too.



All the underground seems to have been closed down now.

Five explosions on the underground and at least one bus in Russel Square with roof blown off according to a reporter which police have refused to confirm!

Now worried about our London members. Hope they post and let us know.

Thank goodness the two of you are OK Tealeaf & Pendy - I was afraid to ask and didn't want to put my thoughts into words.

It sounds awful on the news although at first they were trying to say it was an accidental incident it sounds like well planned terrorism and that is frightening.

There's more news coming in about explosions on other buses.

Rail unions have reported one explosive device found on the underground.


This is awful.

It's going from bad to worse with the reports.

Obviously well-timed to disrupt the transport systems in London but not a thought for the people injured or even killed in the processs.
