Never known it so difficult to get in/out of Enfield by rail this weekend:-

Southbury Loop/Enfield Town - Liverpool Street service bustituted
Hertford Loop (Enfield Chase) - reduced service of one train an hour due to
E.C.M.L. diversions
Cockfosters - (Enfield West, now Oakwood) Wood Green - bustituted
Stevenage - Alexandra Palace via New Barnet (another Enfield - London rail
access via 307 bus) -
Yes you have guessed it, bustituted.

Bloody hell! I didn't realise it was quite that bad. Is this just a
complete failure of joined-up engineering, or does someone have it in for
Metropolitan Hertfordshire?

I was caught up in it myself - i thought i'd go for a bike ride into the
country, then get a train back. Hertford, i thought to myself - i'll be
able to get a quick train home from there. Next time, i'll check the NR
engineering work webpage before doing something like that.
