Anybody know why a Class 150 was on the Richmond - Stratford line this morning?
I take that there is less room too, as it was full by the time we left Gunnersbury

Can a 150 keep to time on the NLL service (Richmond-Stratford)? They are after all diesel trains standing in for electric ones.

Why did they run it on the NLL? I thought the NLL was busier than the WLL and DC lines. Wouldn't it have been a better idea to run the 150 on one of those services?

No good on the DC as not trip fitted and would be subject to 25mph between Kilburn High Road and Harrow & Wealdstone and therefore have an impact on the peak service. Just as easy to put on either NLL or WLL for the peak as they now intermix during the peak, suspect it was on a short peak diagram and ended up at Willesden TMD. |

Not only is a 150 not routed on the DC for the reason stated above.
It is also not DOO (in passenger) workable and the Conductors based at Willessden only sign the route between South Hampstead Tunnel and Willesden Junction.
It is not the first time that 150s have been used on the NLL. This use to take place quite frequently during good old Silverlink days
