Today, I came upon a working chocolate machine at Bayswater. Until the machines are working again across the network, I propose to document the locations of those machines still stocked and working.
1. Bayswater (westbound platform).

In case you may be wondering why the chocolate machines are all out of service.
LUL were told that they were to be turned off as there was a health and safety risk from overheating.
The insides are being updated to the right levels and should be back on line soon.
This is in response to a question on On The Distrist blog.
from The Great Orme.
I saw one on the platform between 1 & 2 at Morden (I think it was that platform)

A "Health and Safety risk" from overheating?
Fire hazard, surely?!
The chocolate bar that the machine produced at Bayswater was nice and cool; not melted at all! Then again, it is quite an exposed station and it was quite cold today.

I think it is mainly chocolate machines in deep level tube stations (rather than surface and open sub-surface stations) which are "out of order" due to the vending machines vending smoke instead of chocolate.

It is only "section 12" stations that are affected - these are basically stations which have undergound platforms.

The three machines at High Barnet are all operational, but some tosser's broken the little door you have to put your hand through to collect your chocolate, rendering it useless.
The ones on platforms 2/3 appear to be fine, though.

Hint - the reason some BBCodes aren't working in people's posts is because you have the "Disable BBCode in this post" checkbox selected.
Uncheck it to make the code work.
Alternatively, go to your profile and select the posting options to be set permanently so your coding works.
