How would a Northumberland Park spur (excuse the pun) affect Vic
operations? The junction is between Seven Sisters and Tottenham
Hale, right? Would this mean diverting trains away from Tottenham
and Walthamstow? Or are there enough Seven Sisters reversers to
cover the branch, in terms of paths? Could you run Seven Sisters -
Northumberland Park shuttles? Either way, you'd need more trains,
right? Is the junction flat or graded? Are there two tubes to the
depot, or one?

Yes, maybe, not necessarily, perhaps, maybe, graded, two.

More fully, there are three platforms at Seven Sisters, one serving the
depot branch. Maybe a shuttle would get in the way of depot movements
though.
