    16 day line closure at Hackney Downs - London Overground suspension and WAML diversions, 20th Jul - 4th Aug

    They might use the block to also do some other maintenance whilst the line is shut, good time for large chunks of work to go in and get done.

    June 2024 Timetable Change

    The ECS' to form these trains already reverse at Haywards Heath, so imo it's a quick win for an extra connection from there. Edit - already mentioned in #146!

    If it ain't broke, don't fix it!! Yet another comical waste of £4m from TfL.

    GWR 387s Usual Diagrams

    Yes, their main area is Padd-Didcot stoppers plus Padd-Newbury & the Newbury-Reading shuttle. On the mainline, I believe they also do: 1A63 0700 Swindon-Padd 1U06 0813 Padd-Bristol PW 1L13 1024 Bristol PW-Padd 1C41 0915 Padd-Swindon 1A66 1025 Swindon-Padd 1C43 1013 Padd-Swindon 1A67 1146...

    Querying the occasional Bedford-Rainham (Kent) direct services?

    I think you pretty much covered it, in the fact it's a good way to cycle stock as I don't think 700s get any maintenance at Gillingham Depot (or just very light & basic stuff).

    16:30 Waterloo to Guildford service arriving later during engineering works

    16:30 Waterloo to Guildford service arriving later during engineering works

    Signal sighting on London end on P4 is very tight with a 10 444/12 450, as such reversals of those stock types are barred on P4 due to the starting signal being out of the driver's view. As such, it is better & safer to use P5 rather than 4. This is also documented in the Wessex TPRs (train...
