Paul Maynard has now replaced Andrew Jones but presumably areas of responsibility could be shuffled https://www.gov.uk/government/ministers/parliamentary-under-secretary-of-state-for-the-department-for-transport

The GTR press release says: “An enhanced “rainbow” queuing system will channel passengers leaving the city into the appropriate queue for their train before they get to the station.”...

They started when the summer timetable came in - 20 May

Should work on 717s, apart from Drayton Park to Moorgate - worth reporting it, if you have issues on rest of line.

Believe they are still working towards consulted timetable ultimately - but last May, delayed rollout of 717s and the engineering programmes impacting Kings Cross and Moorgate over the next couple of years are combining to push back full implementation. Don’t think we’ll see much, if any change...

Lots of Moorgate services cancelled this afternoon / evening due to lack of available drivers. Some Kings Cross Cambridge ones too.

In the key on the left of the map, it says the dotted lines show places where there is under a 10 minute walk between stations

I think the discussions are happening and we’ll see a range of provisions put in place, but there simply isn’t enough rail / bus capacity available to cater for everyone who would normally travel - hence the early warning. It seems to be being handled similarly to the Brighton mainline closures...

The southern part should be back open on Mon 26. Believe NR and TOCs are still working on detailed plans and more info for this closure and other work along the line will be added to the dedicated website, once available https://eastcoastupgrade.co.uk

The reduction of capacity to handle additional trains when there’s disruption on the Moorgate branch or via the Thameslink core, is worrying.

GN have said there won’t be any at weekends until after signalling work is done - likely to be end of May.

There’s a reduced timetable and engineering work, so they need to check what’s running.

There are also 3 pin charging points, which aren't available elsewhere, but again you can use them free in the rear carriage.

As a non-expert, I'm surprised they are being taken singly - is that all each yard can cope with at once or is it down to what the 57 can haul please?

Richard Clinnick is reporting on Twitter that it is 313026: https://twitter.com/Clinnick1/status/1114142224030289922

SDO is certainly in operation at Drayton Park northbound - but only really noticeable if you are in the back carriage, as the info only displays there and the audio is also different there.

Have you got a link for this please?

The Kings Cross Cambridge stoppers will thankfully go back to being 2 per hour from the May timetable change - all the revised services are in showing planners from Sunday 19/5.

They finished at HAT just before 19:00 - think they are back in some places with something tomorrow morning.

For 2G40 RTT is currently showing: "This service was cancelled throughout due to an issue with the train crew (TG)." http://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/train/G14558/2019/03/25/advanced but this might get amended later. Looks to be running now - empty to Hornsey 42 minutes late as 5E40.
