I was studying Harsig's excellent diagram of the Northern Heights extensions and their signalling arrangements at www.harsig.org/PDF/NorthernExtensions.pdf and I immediately noticed that there was no information shown for Muswell Hill, Alexandra Palace or the line south of Highgate towards Finsbury Park.
I was also reading this fascinating thread over at The Signal Box about the various methods used by LT for remote control of lever frames during the late 1930s and early 1940s, and when I looked at both together, a question came to mind: What level of resignalling was planned for Muswell Hill and Alexandra Palace, and would any lever frames at this site have been directly operated or remote controlled from Park Junction (NH) using one of the techniques discussed? Likewise, if the line south of Highgate had ever been resignalled by LT, would any lever frames south of there also have been directly operated or would they also have been remote controlled from Park Junction?
P.S.: www.wbsframe.mste.co.uk/public/Pictures/lt/Park_Junction_disused_1990.jpg is a thoroughly depressing photo...
