Unusual terminal points on LU
wrote in message
oups.com...
Have there been any examples in recent times of LU stations temporarily
becoming terminal points (e.g. because of engineering work) but which
are virtually never used as potential terminal points at other times
even when the timetabled service falls apart for whatever reason? Do
train and platform destination signs just show "Special" or something
similar when a really oddball terminal point comes briefly into
operation?

I've known Holborn to be used as an emergency reversing point (WB - EB) on
the central line. The reversing siding is actually at the disused British
Museum station to the west of Holborn.
Also Bethnal Green has a crossover which has been used for trains
terminating there during engineering works.
