if it was closed for engineering works they wouldn’t reopen it for
three trains after midnight and four trains before 0630 every day,


Those sound like stock positioning moves, which they also schedule for
passenger service.


However it means the line is open and available during those hours. If it
wasn’t, they’d have to go the long way round.
