I know Piccadilly drivers think the District Line runs to a calendar, but it seems to be the DLR that actually does at the moment.
Never mind the problems past Elverson Road, I was (as is my usual at the moment) waiting at Bank for a train - all trains from there are to Lewisham at peak times at the moment, with the King George V services running from Tower Gateway and the Beckton services running from Poplar.
The time shown for the next train on the describer seemed to get longer and longer, then shorten slightly with a couple of 2 minute jumps. There seemed to be a longer than expected gap between trains. This caused the platform to get extremely crowded. Likewise the train when it arrived. I then had to wait for a George at Shadwell - the describer there showed a George first, replaced by a Lewisham and the George then came after it.
Unless, of course, this was somehow "knock on" from the signal failure approaching Lewisham, this is looking like they threw the timetable out of the window.
