Does anyone know the severity of this landslip? Is stock operating the shuttles trapped the Oxted side or is the line still ok for ECS?

The Southbound line towards Oxted was OK for ECS until very early yesterday morning, but I'm not sure what it's like now. In other words, the stock has effectively now been trapped for around 36 hours.
The last ECS move to Selhurst picked up delays of around 25mins passing the site.
I do not believe it is practical to move any 377s - certainly during the day - due to the DC traction current having been isolated. As far as I know, there have just been a couple of 171s to/from Selhurst.

One 171 ECS picked up yesterday morning at East Croydon going southbound, but not sure what happened to that service. It didn't do that this morning.
To cycle the the DMU's round for fuelling we are running an ECS Oxted to Selhurst over the down line to Woldingham last thing at night. To return them in the morning 5G03: 05+05 Selhurst to East Croydon forms 1E03: 0526 East Croydon to Uckfield.
Due to planned engineering works Sunday we can only leave 1 DMU in the bay at Oxted and max 12 cars EMU at East Grinstead so more will leave Saturday night.
