4. Another interesting possibility of extending planned peak extra trains from Enfield to Seven Sisters onwards to Barking via the S Tott curve. As the trains will be common stock in future this would give 6 tph from S Tott to Barking in the peaks. No timescale given, though, for this possible variant service.

I'm intrigued by this suggestion. Obviously it's prompted partly
by the mass migration to the Victoria Line at Seven Sisters -
Tottenham Hale and Blackhorse Road stations see similar levels -
but will this not require selective door operation at GOBLIN stations
whose platforms have been lengthened to cater only for 4 coaches?
Or is it the intention to run special 4 coach trains from Enfield?
