One for the paedants

As I was travelling to university on the tube this morning, I heard an announcement that brought to mind Chris Horrie's 'Fresh fish sold here' story in an early lecture on my journalism course:

'Ladies and gentlemen, due to necessary engineering works there is no service on the Waterloo and City line this weekend.'

I think a Freedom of Information Act request into how much unnecessary work London Transport carries out on tube lines might be in order.
