[Victoria line - Victoria line layout]
Victoria was built with a scissors crossover at the North end, wasn;t
it? Why on earth did they remove it?
I think you're right. No idea why they were removed.
Because Victoria has got a second scissors crossover south of the
station and two central reversing sidings. When the service is buggered
from Victoria to Brixton it can be used to reverse the southbound
service. The original scissors crossover (just like the one that used
to be at Highbury) is thus redundant.
