Ultimate signaling balls up at London Bridge
On Nov 18, 10:04*pm, "Peter Masson"
wrote: "D7666" *wrote in message ... Actually one of the *ultimate* signalling difficulties - if not the UK all time ultimate difficulty - *would occur about 1 km to the west of London Bridge where it is possible to grid lock Borough Market Junction triangle with three 12car trains in the wrong place ... the layout is such that the rear of each one of the three trains obstructs the route of another ... and it is not just the route is locked but track unoccupied, it is the rear of the train is literally on the tracks in front of another. No longer possible. There is no pointwork at Borough Market Junction any more - London Bridge platforms 4, 5, and 6 and the Up Passenger Loop only lead to/from Metropolitan Junction (thence Charing Cross or Blackfriars) while platforms 1, 2, and 3 only lead to Cannon Street.
