North London Line goes 4-car in early 2011

I don't think the ATO thing is an issue - Victoria Line trains are already capable of being driven manually, I am aware of that. and can be equipped with tripcocks for when they need to travel over other lines (e.g. to reach the works at Acton). Presumably they would just need to be equipped with conventional power/brake handles, Nonetheless, that is a lot of expensive work for 45 years old trains. More so because the Bakerloo line also gets a signalling upgrade at some stage (which again I think ties in with the service alteration) and that means further conversion. Cascading 1967 like this does not make sense. -- Nick |
