With no ELL service whatsoever (I thought a NXG to West Croydon shuttle would operate today?) I noticed four units, two on Platform 3 and two on 5.
Is this a common occurrence during engineering works when LO can't operate on the southern branches?

Four units are stabled there every night, so with services not running they have simply been left there. More recently a spare unit has often been left in platform 3 all day with a spare driver on hand to bring it into service if necessary. Three units are also stabled at Clapham Junction overnight (the middle sidings and platforms 1 and 2). We are short on berth roads in the depot due to extension of the heavy cleaning shed and wheel lathe so roads 7 and 8 can only take one unit each. Of course once Silwood opens this won't be necessary.
