  • Underground Diary
    UNDERGROUND DIARY AUGUST 2009 On Saturday 1 August, an unattended item in a cross-passage between the Piccadilly Line platforms at King’s Cross suspended services between Hyde Park Corner and Arnos Grove from 12.05 for 40 minutes. A signal failure at Heathrow Terminal 5 began at 21.10 but had little effect on the service. However, a total failure at 23.20 suspended services between T123 and T5 through to the end of traffic. There was nothing untoward to note for Sunday 2 August. Monday 3 August may be summarised as follows: A Metropolitan Line train from Neasden depot accepted a wrong signal and ended up in the northbound Jubilee Line platform at Wembley Park at 06.10, the train then being returned to depot. A ‘bridge bash’ between Gunnersbury and Kew Gardens suspended the Richmond branch of the District Line from 12.00 to 12.45. Metropolitan Line service to the City suspended 15.15 to 16.05 – signal failure at Farringdon. A multiple signal failure between Hammersmith and Barons Court suspended the Piccadilly Line between Acton Town and Hyde Park Corner from 18.05 to 18.40. A northbound Victoria Line train stalled in Victoria platform at 10.00 on Tuesday 4 August, suspending services south of Warren Street. The offending train was reversed back to Victoria sidings and services resumed at 10.25. The service south of Warren Street was again suspended from 10.45 because of a person under a northbound train at Victoria. The passengers on the train stalled approaching Victoria were walked forward to the station and were clear by 12.00.

  • UNDERGROUND DIARY JANUARY 2018 with Monday 1 January Already Covered in the Previous Issue, We Begin with Tuesday 2 January
    UNDERGROUND DIARY JANUARY 2018 With Monday 1 January already covered in the previous issue, we begin with Tuesday 2 January. At 23.35 the Bakerloo Line was suspended north of Queen’s Park because of items blown onto the track by the high winds south of Kensal Green – a metal obstruction and a tarpaulin under a southbound train. The service remained suspended until the end of traffic. A loss of all point indications in Morden Depot from 22.10 initially resulted in a 35-minute suspension south of Tooting Broadway, with delays continuing until the end of traffic following points being secured and restricted access to the depot, the last being 30 minutes late stabling, with several trains stabled elsewhere. The strong winds continued early on Wednesday 3 January. A tree blown onto the track from a private property on the approach to Ickenham was struck by the first eastbound Metropolitan Line train, suspending services on the Uxbridge line. The first eastbound Piccadilly Line train from Uxbridge, which follows the first Metropolitan Line train, was stalled to the rear until 06.20. Once cleared, services resumed at 06.55. The train was damaged in the incident but not seriously enough to prevent it being worked in service to Harrow, where it was detrained and worked empty to Neasden Depot. In the meanwhile, nine Northern Line trains were cancelled from Morden Depot because of stock imbalance (q.v.). An air burst on a southbound train at Kenton at 23.35 suspended the Bakerloo Line north of Stonebridge Park until the end of traffic.
