A Story And A Rumour About The Gospel Oak To Barking Line
This article on London 24, which is entitled Barking to Gospel Oak Overground line “to close for EIGHT months this year”, appeared yesterday.
The headline sums up the contents of the article well.
I have also received this comment off-line to Thoughts On The Gospel Oak To Barking Electrification.
You noted the works schedule ends 31 May. That tallies with a conversation I had with a LO staffer, who told me the electrification project should be finished by June. I don’t know whether this is true or not.
The article and comment would appear at first look to contradict each other.
I shall be keeping my eyes open and my ears pinned.
You can postulate any number of scenarios that will see four car electric trains running between Gospel Oak and Barking.

Warsaw In The Snow
I took these pictures of Warsaw, as we wandered around the Old City.
I visited this area in April 2014 and wrote about it in Walking Around Warsaw.

About This Blog
What this blog will eventually be about I do not know.
But it will be about how I’m coping with the loss of my wife and son to cancer in recent years and how I manage with being a coeliac and recovering from a stroke. It will be about travel, sport, engineering, food, art, computers, large projects and London, that are some of the passions that fill my life.
And hopefully, it will get rid of the lonely times, from which I still suffer.
