There has been a short notice closure of the Northern Line in the pipeline, to allow work on Kennington points. This has been on the cards for a few months, and I believe is now going ahead on Sunday 19th November.
Originally that day was a Camden - East Finchley closure, and thats still going ahead, so the Northern Line will be operating a very wierd service that day (OK, so maybe it does that most days!)
Its basically no service between Camden Town - East Finchley, and no service between Moorgate - Stockwell. All the trains that go down the CX branch can go all the way to Kennington and will just all reverse via Kennington Loop.
I don't know the exact frequencies, but I'm sure its going to be much less than the normal Camden - East Finchley closure timetable, and will most likely work alot better. I don't think they were able to issue a duty sheet in time, so resourcing this new short notice timetable will cause some disruption. Plus the two closures will be very difficult to communicate to passengers easily.
