    GN Class 717

    Pretty much all of the stations along this stretch are terrible in terms of accessibility - Harringay and Horsney, even Ally Pally, which is pretty bad, given it serves so many festivals/conventions etc. Palmers Green and onwards. The tunneled section in to Moorgate is no different either.

    OHLE Damage at Alexandra Palace (01/05)

    Everything seems okay to me... Can anyone enlighten tho’ as to why this was all deemed to be in the ‘Alexandra Palace area’? It wasn’t really at AP so why do they say that? Is it the traction current area? The station group area? Thanks
