I understand the extension of most SN WLL services through to South Croydon
hasn't happened yet. Is this an infrastructure problem that is being kept
quiet?

I thought new turnback signalling had already 'been provided' for this, and
it was required for the current timetable period?


As pointed out in another post the delay is mentioned is on the
Southern website. It was also raised during the GLA Transport
Committee session yesterday on Orbital rail services. The WLL User
Group rep made appropriate reference to the lack of this turnback
being available.

The entire session (including LUL stuff at the start) can be viewed as
an archived webcast on the Mayor's website. There were lots of
interesting comments from Ian Brown and from the GLA members and the
user reps (from SLL, WLL, GOBLIN and North London Orbital Rail
Partnership). It's about 2 hours in total but worth a listen to
understand the latest situation on a number of projects and works as
well as future aspirations like GOBLIN electrification, 5 car trains
on NLL etc.
