WAGN/NetworkRail also do not seem to maintain the track to the same
standards as LUL so often points at Moorgate or Drayton Park cause a
problem. Also a track circuit failure halts the service unlike on LUL
where stop and proceed can be implemented.

Thanks, that makes sense of all the "Problems at Drayton Park"
announcements. It is a bit like travelling on a hobbyist line run by
Uncle Cyril and his mates...... but I kind of like that :-)

Alas, if Uncle Cyril were running it, he and his mates would be down on the
track securing the routes and adjusting points rather than waiting for
network rail to turn up and deal with it for them!
