Additionally the conductor rail has to be removed to allow the passenger

I didn't know the line had been used for trials of automatic trains? How
would they get them up and down, given that the old depot can no longer be
used for surface access?

Here's how they took out some of the remaining trains in 2011:

One of the pictures in that post answers a question from another post,
thanks! There's a handle on the power units with a plate behind which reads
'point handle in direction for running'.
