SWT's advance engineering works info for the Easter weekend shows a 6
tph service through East Putney. *Will this result in a much reduced
District Line service?


"Two Basingstoke/Alton to Waterloo services per hour, two Woking to
Waterloo services per hour and two Shepperton to Waterloo services per
hour diverted via East Putney. (Sunday: Woking service starts at
Guildford; one Kingston via Shepperton and one Twickenham via
Kingston)."


info from SWT website:
http://www.southwesttrains.co.uk/SWT...Easter2008.htm


http://www.tfl.gov.uk/assets/livetra...me/tube/track-
closures.pdf has work for that weekend as affecting:


"Baker Street to Hammersmith (Hammersmith & City) - No Circle - Earl's
Court to Edgware Road (District)"


So I'd suggest the Edware Road-Wimbledon service won't run atall which
frees up the required paths from East Putney.


The above seems to imply that Wimbleware trains will be reversing at
Earls/Earl's Court (via Triangle Sidings?).-


Or it could just mean that Earls Court to Wimbledon is covered by
trains from the Victoria direction.
