Moved from the SSR Resignalling Thread as this was more general than SSR-specific - Tom
District Line
Acton Town - all platforms
Barons Court - WB District
Earl's Court - all platforms
East Ham - EB
Upminster Bridge - both platforms
Metropolitan Line
Finchley Road - both Met platforms
Harrow on the Hill - platforms 1, 3, 4, 5, & 6.
Ruislip - WB
Moor Park - NB local
Chalfont and Latimer - bay platform (2x Testers both now out of use but not formally decommissioned)
Amersham - Platform 2 (NB) and Platform 3 (SB)
Digressing, I must look into what the present arrangements are a Finsbury Park main line on the approaches to Northern City into Moorgate. There were once some form of tripcock tester for 313s and presumably 717s on the relevant Up roads at the north end of the passenger platforms.
I have lost track of where they are with ETCS from Drayton Park; I think it ought to be operational now, but despite a google search I can't seem to find any confirmation it actually is.
Having thought about it, I have no idea how tripcock tester pass or fail was indicated to 313/717 drivers.
Nor how it is indicated on Merseyside either (assuming they test).
