Default GOBLIN: FURTHER ELECTRIFICATION WORK.

Since Network Rail's failure to complete the
electrification work between Woodgrange Road and
Gospel Oak during the recent several months closure
of the line, rumours have floated around the Internet
that a second blockade will take place in August. I have
found no confirmation of that from either Network Rail
or TfL.

This afternoon I noticed that in the past few days more
masts have been erected in the Leytonstone section of the
route, and that several more are strewn alongside the track.

Tomorrow the entire Goblin is closed. I assume that this is
to enable more masts to be installed.


I thought the big short-term project which required line closures was
fixing the two sewers they penetrated, or has that been completed?

Can't masts be erected while the line is open?
