I have noticed near the headwall on the N/B at Belsize Park, there is a set of white shutters. Whats behind them? Access to the Lower machine chamber, switchrooms?

Either that, or the wartime shelter (now in use as document storage).

Appalled? Stations or the P Way? Chalk Farm is being refurbed, and I am sure it will go up the line. Burnt Oak was done a little while ago, Brent Cross? P Way, there have been closures over the last year or two, with more later this year. Golders has been a right bottleneck since the Camden - East Finchley section has been taken out.

Barnet branch, especially north of Finchley Central, is a lot better. The section from Barnet to Trotteridge used to be like a rollercoaster!!! Got rid of the old jointed track, so we now have a lovely smooth ride.... T/Ops can pour the tea without spilling the precious liquid now...

Going slightly off thread, wasnt a station planned between Totteridge and High Barnet, it was to be called Barnet Vale. If it was built, it might have stopped the race track! ;D

I suspect there may have been requests, as Totteridge and High Barnet are some distance apart. I believe there was also some agitation for one between Fin Cen and E Fin.

There was indeed, the name escapes me, but I will have a root around in my books and come back with an answer.
