I have noticed the past few hours on the Central's departure boards @ the TFL website that there are several westbounds heading for Ruislip Gardens; and also some eastbound trains located at Road 23 [at West Ruislip]. Are there trains in the current WTT booked to leave service @ Ruislip Gardens, run through Ruislip depot to reverse at Road 23, then do the reverse action to re-enter service as eastbounds @ Ruislip Gardens? According to the Central WTT's I have, all westbounds leaving service @ Ruislip Gardens run to the depot and are no longer in service.

It depends - most of them go straight from Ruislip Gardens into the depot, but one or two detrain at Ruislip Gardens, run to 23 road, then reverse into the depot.

I still see alot of Eastbounds with destinations of Epping. Loughton, etc, scheduled on the departure boards for Ruislip Gardens and stations east thereof saying these trains are on Road 23. Isn't Road 23 also the connection between the Chiltern mainline and Ruislip Depot?

Some trains are timetabled to exit Ruislip depot via the westend into 23 rd and enter service at Ruislip Gardens, roughly one in the morning and one in the evening, with half the peak service from Ruislip depot entering service via the eastend of the depot at Ruislip Gardens eastbound. The BR link road is seperate to 23rd, with the link not having any traction current rails, and not used by tube stock.
