Jubilee live track fault at Baker Street

[Silent]

I’m just curious as to if it’s northbound or southbound. I know going south there is always a sharp jolt after the platform. In fact I’ve wondered if it poses a risk to train derailment, though obviously that’s probably me being overly dramatic.

Your description of a jolt matches the location of points connecting the Jubilee and Bakerloo tracks.

Is this maybe about a Jubilee Line track fault? ("Jubilee live track fault at Baker Street")
I had visions of the running rails getting energised at however many volts they use (+330 or -330?)

however many volts they use (+330 or -330?)

Traditional LU 4th rail electrification uses +420V and -210V to achieve the 630V potential. This doesn't apply to some areas modernised to 750V for support of regenerative braking.

It was an axle counter miscount between two devices at Bond Street SB
