A query has arisen on GENSHEET about timetabled use of the Locals, WB and EB. Are there any booked trains now on the EB? The WB seems to be a regular occurrence.
Also, running T4 to T123 P1. This will I would have thought happen if in the, sorry when in the future, T4 trains get sent to T5 to reverse to cover a gap, or if the chap or chapess behind the text is mischievous!

There are two booked to run on the EB Local ex Northfields.
M-F - One is about 2200, and the last is near to close of traffic. There aren't too many as it is a Push Button move and is not controlled by the Programme Machines.
As to T4 To T123 I am not sure if there are booked trains to platform 1, but that route is still used on special timetables and as required.

I had the first train around the loop on a Sunday morning some time ago and after leaving T4 on time I got held at WY1. After enquiring I got the harbour lights on it. No problem in accepting that as I can still go E/B off P1. After being held there for a couple of minutes I decided to consult the Holy Bible (WTT 43!) to see if I was in the way of anything coming direct from Hatton X.
Lo and behold it was actually a booked move as was 15 minutes standtime at both Heathrows (added together, not each!)
On another note despite a few days of teething problems this new timetable seems to run well. I just hope they get rid of the turns where you finish at the other end and ride the cushions back!!

DOC It won't be quite as good, when they have to send trains to T5- the late running will be back then! |
