The soaring temperatures on the London Tube more than the summer season months have been a difficulty for some years now. A London Underground team has attempted to come up with some engineering options to the problem by making a groundwater cooling

method. The trial, which starts this summer, aims to make it cooler for passengers on platforms and will be tested at Victoria station which is so deep that it is successfully beneath water and pumps out 35 litres (eight gallons) a second, to quit it coming through the walls. The idea of the new method is to push the water by means of a network of pipes into heat exchange units on the platforms, which will suck in warm air and pump out cooler air. The heat could be utilized to power homes and offices above and this way the temperature will be brought down.

But this is only a trial to be tested this year and it is far from getting put into perform as properly as new trains with air cooling systems that are promised for Circle, District, Hammersmith and City and Metropolitan lines.

Meanwhile the temperatures in the deepest tunnels, reach 30C (86F) in summer time.

These modifications may affect the London Tube in a drastic way. Some of the Tube lines might be closed especially on the hot summer season days. London Underground assures that there are no plans to close any Tube Lines throughout the summer season but in the future years it could get to the point "exactly where the underground will become literally intolerable and you could face the prospect of loss of life" as Mr Livingstone from LU advised.

About 1,000 London Tube passengers had been trapped for nearly two hours when 3 trains were held up in a tunnel. The Central Line closed after signal failures stopped the trains between Marble Arch and Lancaster Gate. The trains have been evacuated and three men and women had been treated for the effects of heat.
