Are there any plans for a turning loop at Brixton Underground? At the
moment you very often have to wait in the south bound tunnel because
trains are moving over the scissors junction at the northern end of
the station.
Alternatively, are there any turn-back sidings at the southern end of
the station? Couldn't these be used to turn trains around? Would the
time spent ensuring each train was empty before entering the sidings
be prohibitive?
They are just plain storage sidings with no crossover (and no room for
one) - the Brixton terminus was done on the cheap! See:
