For closing the entire section of the Nothern Line for the entire w/e.
Cheers for that. Very considerate.


And the utter utter *******s even had the cheek to publicise this well
in advance so that you could make alternative plans. The cads!


Yes, I should have checked for which bit of the tube wasn't running during
a w/e for what must be getting on for the 10th year in a row. Its becoming
like the Forth Bridge and its not funny.

They've finished painting the Forth Bridge for a while, but there seems
little likelihood of weekend maintenance coming to an end on the
Underground.

There's new signalling to come on the SSL, S stock trains to be introduced
on the Circle and District lines, all-new trains on the Picc, and later the
replacement of the other old Tube stock, the Northern line Battersea
extension, etc, etc. So more fool you if you don't use the Journey Planner
before undertaking a weekend journey.
