Episode Twenty Eight, The Moorgate Train Disaster

At the height of rush hour on the morning of the 28th of February 1975, 300 passengers sat, stood and leant on all areas of the packed tube heading to it's final stop at Moorgate station.
Passengers and the guard towards the rear of the train realised the train wasn't slowing and was in fact accelerating. They began to panic, but had just seconds before darkness engulfed the 6 carriages and the piercing noise of the crash, metal and glass breaking took over. This was followed by deafening silence. Shock. Quiet. And then an ear piercing scream, following by shouting, crying, and smoke.
