Excellent find - thanks for providing the link. Some of the work
seems to be moving along at a cracking pace. I am surprised that some
track laying will start in November !!

I wonder if they might deliver rails and sleepers via a newly laid Old Kent
Rd junction; on the basis that it is the more straightforward route. It
needn't be signalled initially as it could be done in a full possession. If
they used that Balfour Beatty 'New Track machine' (as seen on Airdrie to
Bathgate) they'd get the track laid in a few days...

That would also be the least disruptive to the ELL overall, as an approach
from the north would mean engineering trains shunting via Surrey Quays?
