Not when one of the busiest parts of the line is through docklands.

They did keep it open at first until what Roland observes became
apparent.

Huh? Last day of Jubilee service at Charing Cross was 1999-11-19.
First day of through service between the JLE and the Green Park to
Stanmore section was 1999-11-20. On no date were passenger trains
scheduled to run along both routes.

Yes, sorry. They announced they would keep it in public service but then
changed their minds, just reversing empty trains terminated at Green Park.
Have they stopped doing even that?
