Does anyone know what is up with the Central Line at the moment?
Well, whatever was the result of new timetable - now LU has convenient
excuse of vandalism ;-) "CENTRAL LINE: Suspended between North Acton and Ealing Broadway due to vandalism at North Acton with severe delays on the rest of the line." By the way, I wonder what is new in this timetable? Any significant changes for passengers? |

It might be a reasonable assumption to make but the fact that there has been a repeat raises a number of important issues given how many miles of cable there are on railways around London - not just the tube network. -- Paul C Admits to working for London Underground! |

Your grapevine is better than mine What did the thieves nick? I travelled on the Picc over the Central at Acton today and saw a large workforce busily at work with cranes, lots of wagons and battery locos. It looked like they were replacing ballast and track, rather than just a few cables (unless they were burying them). |

The Central line is closed this weekend for track renewal which is the cranes and stuff. If it was like last time they got some twisted screen track cable and some redundant lead. It seemed more like sabotage than anything the weight of copper in twisted screen is next to nothing. |

They tried, got as far as cutting the cables, were then disturbed and fled. -- Thoss |
