Looking at the line on the left the 3rd rail presumably stops halfway
down the platform, long before the overhead starts. This was obviously
done deliberately but why? Surely it means anything electric has to be
dragged to and from the 25kv and 3rd rail sections unless the driver gets some
speed up first and hopes for the best!
