So, if the old TCT is no longer in use, does that mean there is a build-up of dust going on?

South Ken escalators are nearly life expired and need overhaul but the exit to the District and Circle wouldnt be able to cope with the heavy demand. So they have been instructed to bring the disused platform into use once more. The platform would get extended and a new fire exit to the east end of the station installed all to be done for the end of 2017
Interesting, thank you.

Going way off topic the disused eastbound platform at South Kensington is going to be brought back into use by the end of 2017
Really? Tell us more please?

I think I have 2 of the insets - #1 is Bo'ness Station on the Bo'ness and Kineil Railway and #3 is Ropley on the Mid-Hants.

Apologies if this is a bit off topic but it looks as though the Oyster machines have stopped saying "next time why not top up online?". Which is a blessed relief as it always annoyed me - the answer being "because it is much less convenient to top up online than to do it at the station which I have to come to anyhow in order to catch a train".

Inset C is Buchanan Street subway station

Also, D2 is Ropley MPD from the bank above the up platform.
I think B might be Tooting Bec?

The same happens at Leytonstone westbound. Particularly annoying is where one train is advertised as leaving first, leaves first, and then waits outside the station for the following train (or on one occasion the following two trains) to pass it.
And at Earls Court where 2 Wimbledon trains can be dispatched simultaneously, but it always seems to be the one I'm not on that overtakes and gets the road into West Brompton.

I'd love to see a picture or two of the D stock in their last months at, say, Southfields... Why Southfields in particular Southfieldschris?
Oh, no reason.....

Those are very fine photographs. I hope you find your way down the Wimbledon Branch a bit more before the project ends; I'd love to see a picture or two of the D stock in their last months at, say, Southfields...

The inset is definitely the Barbican, from the steps leading down from Podium level to the lakeside.

If it is anything to do with Cockfosters it could be because 31st July is the anniversary of Cockfosters' opening.

Some mentioned Wimbledon Park and East Putney previously, but I'm going to have to choose Southfields. From a station staff viewpoint the accomodation is much better, having been modernised and expanded fairly recently. Makes a big difference when you have to spend 8 hours or more there!
All my favourites have already been mentioned !
I wanted to vote for Southfields, for the obvious reason, except that all that staff accommodation means there is no waiting room on the platform at a station which can be very cold and damp in winter. So, of the two former "twin sisters", my vote has to go to Wimbledon Park.
That vast cavern leading down to the Jubilee at Westminster is wonderful.
