The automatic train operating system may have contributed to both accidents, the RAIB said.
Safety recommendations have been made following the incident on the Northern Line An elderly woman ended up in hospital after she was dragged along a platform when her coat got stuck in a door. The 101-year-old had to be treated for serious injuries following the incident at on the Northern Line at Archway station in February. She was getting off the train with a companion at around 3.50pm when the door closed, trapping her.
She was dragged 20 metres along the platform before the zip ripped off the jacket. The driver was not aware of what had happened so continued to the next station. She sustained minor injuries to her elbow and both knees and suffered psychological distress. The system means the driver opens and closes the train doors, but the train is driven automatically.
