The Met is currently able to (and has been) stop at Wilesden Green (and I think Neasden) - is this still going to be the case with the S Stock?

Yes, all the facilities needed are installed or being installed at the Met platforms at Neasden and Willesden Green for S stock, including CSDE/SDO, OPO TTCCTV and S stock stopping markers. There are some SDO doors (doors automatically cut out). The CIS isn't programmed to include these two stations in its announcements though. As you probably know, the platforms are only used in Degraded or Emergency conditions officially. However, I've often been on trains which opened their doors there during blocking back (Degraded conditions) and I see that they are used during some Jubilee Closure weekends too. |

The Met was stopping at Willesden Green a week ago when the Jub was suspended past West Hampstead (31st July) much to my suprise.
