In his blog today, Dave Hill tries to explain the ELL trial service that
should start in early April.

He seems to get his description of the initial service a bit wrong, in that
he has an 8 tph service from Dalston Junction to New Cross Gate, with 4 then
carrying on to New Cross ??? but more interestingly he mentions an early 4
tph service to Crystal Palace, with the West Croydon branch being added
later (at the timetable change) in May.

Me thinks Mr Hill might need to take a glance at a map!

FWIW during the Thames Tunnel tour, the gent "from London Overground"
accompanying our group (who was probably actually from TfL London
Rail) hinted heavily that there would be a trial service before the
May TT change - though of course that isn't really news.


Has anyone heard any more about the service intentions? *Is it possible to
feed 4 tph to Crystal Palace within the existing SN timetable - obviously
the actual times don't have to be the same as those intended in May, but
this hasn't been predicted anywhere else TTBOMK.

Interesting - first time I've heard that. Er, as to whether it would
fit in with the existing timetable... pass!


BTW, he also suggests a look at London Reconnections, which has a couple of
recent sets of ELL station and depot pictures. *Recommended viewing...
