Have a look at this diagram:http://tinyurl.com/42v2d4

The red bit is the new dive under. The yellow bit is the existing
flyover. Ignore the red cross.

By where it says DLT 1 there's some hatching on a section of the
eastbound track, which is the bit to be demolished. Below the hatching
are the two westbound tracks. One of these will be used temporarily to
get eastbound trains from the flyover to West India Quay. And that's
why they've made the two westbound tracks merge before they get to
this area.

I think I'm getting there. Also, maybe the start of the flyunder is
going to encroach on where the northern of the westbound tracks used
to go in any case. I can certainly imagine that the building of it
would.

Will the direct track remain as a diversion? I am also thinking that
maybe West India Quay could continue to be served at less busy times,
but maybe that would be confusing.

It's becoming more of a weekend destination, with bars, restaurants,
festivals and things.
