710 266 was/is on the NLL. Got on it this morning!

They have made changes to match days and they run 4tph from Enfield Town and then fast from Seven Sisters to Liverpool Street. All match day trains are 8 car services

I do think the Enfield/Chingford line would benefit 8 car running at weekends during the core hours. Trains always full to the brim

Hi everyone I’ve noticed a few times over the last few weeks there have been points failures at Seven Sisters, including this morning 27/9. Does anyone know if they are connected these recent failures and which set of points is causing the issue? Thanks DomK

I regularly see a 710/1 and 710/2 coupled together. Not seen 2x 710/2 yet though. I like it when 2 trains are connected together sequentially for example, I was on 710121 and 710122 the other day :)

Yes at Tottenham Hale they run 14/44 from Hertford East and 25/55 from Meridian Water. The worst part is the Monday-Saturday service which sees the Stratford-Meridian Water service arrive at 26/56 at Tottenham Hale when the Hertford East local is 25/55, so in many instances you see people...

Yes it was added to the Cambridge service, but restricted to 1tph shared with Northumberland Park. But no explanation from GA as to why as no engineering works indicated. It’s advertised for this Sunday but not last Sunday

Hi everyone I’ve been noticing a trend recently where Greater Anglia have been not running the Meridian Water to Stratford service on Sundays. A good example is the Sunday just gone (Sunday 26th March) where there were no engineering works, the Hertford East trains ran to Stratford as normal...

Hi everyone Tottenham Hale had extensive work done with a new station entrance twinned with LU and a new high capacity footbridge and a new escalator and lift/step free access. But right now it doesn’t seem finished. The footbridge leads to a back area that makes the journey much longer and...

My observations having used 720s for sometime since their introduction on WA. Pros - Very fast acceleration and quiet and good suspension. Cons - too many seats 3+2 is just madness I noticed that the 720/1s have the gangway 3+2 layout by the doors as 2+2 initially but then continues as 3+2...

710 123 and 710 260 on platform 1 for the last 3 days looking snowed in. Can only assume it failed and cannot get to Chingford yet. Don’t know why photo is upside down ‍♂️

Hi everyone Enfield Town/Cheshunt to Liverpool Street will be closed for 4 weekends from Sat 19th November. Does anyone know what works are being done? I’ve seen some track places on the sleepers at Seven Sisters so I’m guessing track replacement. There are a number of speed restrictions in...

Just spotted 720110 on the 10 coach service to Hertford East. Not sure if it’s a first but it did look shiny

Today at Enfield Town platform 2 is back! Platform 2 and 3 with new buffer stops. Platform 1 still has the old wooden style but has had new ballast so these buffers may get renewed soon

I note that some work has been done to the buffer area on platform 2 at Enfield Town with some new ballast and similar. This looks like it was recent as The track on P2 has had evidence of train running in the last couple of days
