And can you reverse in both directions at Victoria, Warren Street
and Seven Sisters? Again, the tracks would allow it, but what about
the signalling? Or is it all done manually?

Victoria is principally a south to north reversal - either via the
sidings to the south or the crossover. In theory you could run a train
north out of the n/b and reverse back over the crossover into the s/b
but I've never heard of that being done.

Victoria was built with a scissors crossover at the North end, wasn;t
it? Why on earth did they remove it?
