It is 4LM.

Its not a wholesale break though, still need signallers, people working in engineering possessions etc.. Easter is another period when significant engineering takes place.

What improvements would it allow, and would the loops actually be in the right place? You have a loop on the up at West Ruislip and the old down line at South Ruislip. As @Zomboid notes, you would be sitting at a Sudbury station for a while as you now have approach control into the loop, as well...

It was already there, it makes it a lot easier.

Dec 26 is Xmas 2026. Blocks aren't nailed down at all.

Rolling stock determines that. Door cycles are too long.

What do you intend to replace them with?

I would say Japanese culture makes it better, not slower!

That is/has already been looked at, hence the increased amount of blockades happening. Red zone working is never going to be relaxed.

Ignoring the topic being discussed, that really does go both ways! Operators are just as bad.

NR will know all that already, via the strategic planners, economic analysts etc

2A solves Colwich. It is far from weak.

You are still assuming that you can make the throat work.

I'm not sure what you are getting at? Most modern LED signals have two signal lenses that can show different aspects in a 4 aspect area, a single lens in 3 aspect. A historic 3 lens bulb signal wouldn't be able to do what you are suggesting.

You currently have 8 tph using the Airport, with TPE expecting a 9th. If you are using longer trains, which the airport remodelling is for, then you are permissively working. A 200m train is not going to allow for anything significant behind it. As above. 9tph passenger expected, alongside any...

What do you mean by pre caution? Double yellow? It can be done on a transition to four aspect signalling where a 3 aspect signal head has yellow, green, yellow. You can't have a double yellow on three aspect signalling, or it would be four aspect.

Add on another 2 for Avanti (2 Birmingham, 1 Scotland via Birmingham, 1 Chester, 2 Liverpool, 3 Manchester, 1 Glasgow) and 5 tpd Lumo. It is 7 for LNWR (2 x Milton Keynes, 2 x Tring, 1 x Crewe, 2 x Birmingham). If you are increasing the platform occupancy for at least 12 of those trains, how are...

You would need more rolling stock and more platforms at Euston.

There is plenty being looked at since the event, believe me. Its insulting to assume NR will use Water St as an excuse.

Ignore that diagram at the top, all bets are off on that. Would likely not fit at the airport as it would want a sizeable turnaround, even with the proposed platform extensions and relying on permissive working as you will still have a significant amount of trains to/from Piccadilly. Doubtful...
