On Sunday 24 November the north bound Northern Line services were not stopping at Euston around 1830. Does anyone know why?

To do with the problems upstairs in the mainline station?

(Power supply issues / overcrowding on the concourse).

Thanks. I boarded at Leicester Square and there were problems with overcrowding there with passengers held in the pedestrian tunnels and only let onto the platforms in dribs and drabs. Is this common on a Sunday afternoon or was it caused by the Picc. Line closure?

Might be to do with the Picc closure, but the Northern Line was having issues over the weekend as well, with an emergency timetable brought in because of speed restrictions in the open sections as a result of the signalling system struggling to cope with the poor adhesion conditions. Probably a combination of the two things.

The Euston non stopping was more to do with the mainline station issues though.
