North London Line goes 4-car in early 2011
"Bob" wrote in message ups.com... Diverting the Watford LNWR DC lines to the Bakerloo will increase capacity by using 7(albeit tube gauge) cars on the Watford London corridor as opposed the 313/508 3 and 6 car mix For existing passengers to Euston and beyond - changes at Baker Street for existing Circle/Metroplitan transit passengers and Oxford Circus or Green Park for almost every other tube interchange. Paths will be freed from Camden Junction to Euston and then rebuilding Euston platforms 9 and 10 in line with the overall rebuilding the station could take place. The probable result would be fewer but longer platforms at Euston more suited to 12 car outer surburban or Pendolino operation. NLL Termination on platform 1 at Queens Park in the southbound morning peak to platform 4 in the northbound evening peak to facilitate cross platforminterchange needs a facing crossover south of Queens Park but personally I think non conflicting termination at Willesden DC bay platform 2 is a better option - filling in the vacant space to allow access/egress from both sides ala White City is better. Terminating at WJ LL also allows those who got on the wrong train at stations east of Camden Rd to recover the situation! Is terminating at Queens Park to allow a full Bakerloo service beyond, as currently a proportion of Bakerloo trains terminate there? Paul |
