Engineering works 29th/30th January

[wanstead]

It seems there's a huge amount of the line out of action the last weekend in January, including the entire central section and the the Rayners Lane branch. Is this more upgrading for the Deep Tube programme, or just signalling/trackwork renewal?

I'm guessing the northern part of the line is still operational, as I need to travel between Southgate and Finsbury Park during Saturday morning. 

Interestingly, the TFL map seems to suggest that services will be running between Knightsbridge and Gloucester Road though

In connection with track replacement work between Ealing Common and Hammersmith and track re-conditioning work between Hyde Park Corner and King’s Cross St Pancras.

Cockfosters-King’s Cross St Pancras, every 6min
Northfields-Heathrow Terminal 5, via Terminals 2 ,3, every 10min.

Same closure 19-20 March 2022.

Maybe they ran out of blue ink...

There is no facility to reverse at Gloucester Road. The nearest place is HPC or via Down St.

Probably some nonsense arising from the fact there's no Piccadilly line service at South Kensington anyway just now? So this 29/30 Jan Closure isn't taking anything away just there!

Not any more, the March closure has recently been cancelled.

Replacement buses will operate to Northfields from Hammersmith / Earl's Court. The District Line is also suspended Earl's Court to Richmond / Ealing Broadway.
