What's the pattern in the peaks?


1. The Wimbledon branch collapses entirely.
2. Tower Hill trains stop short at Mansion House - but the driver is only
told after leaving Blackfriars.
3. Everything takes 10 minutes to get between Tower Hill and Whitechapel,
held at signals whilst H&C line trains faff around
4. Long queues build up on the eastbound at Barking, as LU insist upon
emptying trains in the through road, then reversing them via the sidings,
rather than reversing in the often empty bay platform.


Okay, thanks.

Thanks to Peter and Clive, too.
