The Ealing Bdy train that I was just on was held up for a while just after Ealing Cmn. I'm guessing the Picc ahead of us took the wrong road?  |

I'm guessing the Picc ahead of us took the wrong road? Possibly, although they have turned up there intentionally sometimes, to provide a service when maintenance works stops the District running. Or it could have been sent there to fill a gap in the District service - unlikely if it delayed you though. Or to get it out of the way if it had developed a fault. |

Would this be the same train I saw in Acton Town siding (no 21 IIRC) at around 1 o'clock?

Are there any stats for how many times wrong roads are set/accepted, each year?
I presume acceptance is very uncommon, but how often is the situation save by the driver's vigilance?

its very common believe it or not depending on the move though 95% of the time the train is set back behind the signal under correct procedures

That's pretty poor stuff as you get knee deep in the cack if you accept it. Is that down to the programme machine or is it at non-automatic signals and therefore human error in a signal box somewhere? Is there any comeback on them other than a bit of a sharp word over Connect?

I was so tempted to take one of them as it was a bit of track I hadn't done at that time, however I did the bit of track legitimately two weeks later  |
