Default Northern Line

Hi All.

Just wondering if there was any reason why everyone's saying the Northern
Line's suspended at the moment between Charing Cross and Hampstead, and
Kings X and East Finchley. Does anyone else think it suggests trains

don't
run from Charing X to the Barnet branch, and the other way round.

Only a small point, but it just sounded a bit odd to me.

Perhaps they're going to split the Northern Line in two!

I'm sure in the past when ever there has been a problem (signals, points
failures etc) they tend to use the Charing X Branch for High Barnet to
Morden and trains to/from Edgware travel via the Bank branch.

Just makes life a lot easier for the operator to control a better service
until they can provide a full time table service.
