I am safeguarded staff and have Residential Travel from Tring (TRI) to Stonebridge Park (SBP) and I am frequently now attending meetings in Euston for which Network Rail will buy me a ticket. My question is; If I use my residential ticket along with a Day single from Harrow (HRW) to Euston...

I’m sure that could be arranged.

Yep, I also close them on 350s if the weather is wet/cold when I get on if no one is behind me.

Signallers generally don’t have a say. If it can be, and is timetabled that way we will do it. I would love to be able to bung you across West London Junction, especially if there is congestion on the Reliefs/Good in the Sudbury Jn area. In fact some of us will ask if you sign the ladder as it...

Yes of course, I just meant there shouldn‘t be too much work, if any on the ground to do. I’m not commenting further now.

I was responding to the person hoping 36 minutes was not a final path. I’m not that good at posting including quotes. 1716790776 Yep and as they’re slightly different it shouldn’t be too hard to get the restriction removed.

I know, but considering the 805 and 807s are it shouldn’t be too much work to get them cleared…..

Oh yeah I get that, I was more responding to the comment that if the platform was available, we’d be able to run them early from WLJ

I work Wembley box. The tricky bit will be getting a gap at WLJ. The 15mph crossovers are a pain.

13.5 minutes from Euston - Acton ML isn’t bad. But agreed coming the other way is slow as coming the other way, pathing through WL Junction is trickier. I wouldn’t think these are the final path though.

Yep we use Wise as well.

The entire DC line from Kilburn High Road to Watford is controlled manually by one signaller. admittedly, mostly in auto, except around Queen’s Park, Stonebridge Park, Harrow and Watford. So at any one time, the signaller will have 7 DCs on the patch and 5-8 LULs all constantly requiring...

NR have always used Novembers RPI as the benchmark for the following Januarys pay award.

As said you’d get the enhanced rate after midnight. But if it’s your base roster its not classed as overtime in the way a RDW or Sunday worked is.

There is still a fault at Euston, the fault that’s been ongoing there the last few days has been narrowed down and is affecting platforms 10-12 only now.

Stonebridge Park and Harrow and Wealdstone could do with one on the down DC, so that in the event of late running on the LUL, through trains aren’t held up while the terminators are tipping out. Even better if an extra crossover south of SBP could be installed to allow an LUL to turn back south...

I don’t know. It wasn’t me on Twitter.

We try to avoid 16, we generally only use it if we are stuck or for a long layover,

There is a divided freight train near Ferriby.

Euston is quite unusual in that its ‘slow line’ platforms are between the ‘fast line’ platforms. Not easily solved either as the layout between Camden and Euston is optimised for that. All that said, the Euston layout is extremely restricted compared to Paddington to Ladbroke Grove for instance.
