    THE LONDON ELECTRIC TRAIN 8 – CAPACITY CRISIS by Piers Connor CRISIS the First World War of 1914-18 Had Led to Huge Increases in Traffic on the Underground

    THE LONDON ELECTRIC TRAIN 8 – CAPACITY CRISIS by Piers Connor CRISIS The First World War of 1914-18 had led to huge increases in traffic on the Underground. By 1919, passenger journeys had increased by almost 70% over those in 1914 but stock totals had only risen by about 5% and maintenance had been reduced to minimum levels because of shortages of materials and manpower. Things were desperate and an emergency meeting of managers, led by Sir Albert Stanley, the chairman, took place on 12 August 1919 to discuss the issues. At the meeting, it was noted that 90% of tube stock was required for peak hour schedules and that “at certain times there was considerable deficiency”. It was said that this was due to “a shortage of skilled armature winders”. They were obviously having trouble keeping motor cars in service. The shortage of armatures was worst on the District Railway. In order to overcome the problem, the Underground group management agreed with the London & North Western Railway company that the armatures ordered for the Watford Joint Stock (WJS) would be diverted to the District, while the District’s armatures were sent to the British Thomson-Houston (BTH) factory at Rugby for rewinding and subsequent inclusion into the motors being built there for the WJS. There was also a general shortage of trailer cars, largely because they had opened the 1914-15 extensions to the Bakerloo using trailers ‘borrowed’ from the Piccadilly Line. This led to their restricting train lengths on both the Piccadilly and Bakerloo lines to a maximum of five cars.

    HEATHROW TERMINAL 5 OPENS on Friday 14 March, Her Majesty the Queen Officially Opened the New Terminal 5 Building at Heathrow Airport

    HEATHROW TERMINAL 5 OPENS On Friday 14 March, Her Majesty The Queen officially opened the new Terminal 5 building at Heathrow Airport. Despite new sections of Underground being previously completed (the Piccadilly Line from Heathrow T1,2,3 to Terminal 5 and Heathrow Express from Heathrow Central T1,2,3 to Terminal 5), there was no Royal opening for these. The Piccadilly Line extension to Heathrow Central (as it was then) on 16 December 1977 was a Royal occasion, as was the Terminal 4 opening on 1 April 1986 (the station opened on 12 April), the latter being in the hands of the Prince and Princess of Wales. The opening for passengers came on Thursday 27 March 2008, for both the Piccadilly Line and Heathrow Express. Both lines and platforms lay side by side each other. A short section of blue-tinted glass „wall‟ separates the two railways, so it possible to see one from the other. The Heathrow Express platforms are numbered 3 and 4, while the Piccadilly Line platforms are numbered 5 (arrival) and 6 (departure). Platforms 1 and 2 are reserved for any future main line rail expansion. Notices suggest that passengers might find it quicker to use the lifts, instead of two (or more) escalators from platform level into the terminal building. Here on the first day, your reporter was greeted with the announcement of delays in the air terminal to passengers‟ baggage. This turned into a rather big problem, which resulted in a number of flights being cancelled from the all-BA terminal, not only on opening day but for many days after, and certainly as these notes were being finalised on 6 April.

Christopher Zegras Professor Chair, Program Committee Quantifying Passenger Impact of Disruptions on Metro Lines by Mark Perelmuter Submitted to the Department of Urban Studies and Planning on May 20, 2020 in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Transportation Abstract Disruptions occur frequently in urban rail transit systems. Whether due to asset failure, passenger action, weather, or other causes, disruptions often force passengers to change their preferred route or mode, defer their travel to a later time, or avoid making the trip altogether. Researchers and transit network operators have
