    Default Channel Tunnel Fire?

    I only know about the Brussels-Frankfurt ICE-3 service. Seats will
    show GGF while the train is being prepared for departure.
    Unfortunately, by this time passengers are often embarking, and
    looking for their reserved seats. After the software loads the
    reservations, most of the GGF indications will be replaced by
    reservation indications, or by a blank display if the seat is
    unreserved. Some seats near the end of each carriage will keep
    showing GGF for the entire duration of the journey. Conversely, seat
    106 in coach 31 - right at the back - is never reserved and never
    shows GGF. That's where I usually sit. IME - happy to be
    contradicted.

    Does that involve DB staff plugging in a laptop while the train is
    stood at the platform? I don't know how long the unit had been in the
    platform when I boarded the 17:59 at 17:52. I'm sure all the seats
    still showed GGF at 17:56.
