Minor delays today due to train shortage as there have been the past few days. This won't help having another train out of action. Having trains away for refurb is already starting to bite the service it seems with the 2 refurbished trains not due back in service next year.

Saturday was minor delays in the morning but the problem worsened in the evening to severe delays as I had to use the Jubilee to return from the east

I was more lucky on Saturday evening, as while arriving at Stratford on a c2c service I could see that there was a White City train two minutes away. It was quite crowded though so there may have been a gap ahead of it, while the following two were about 3 - 4 minutes apart from what I can remember. It did appear from announcements that the issues were worse at the western end of the line.

Things seem pretty bad on the Central Line with train shortages.
Buses accepting tickets the entire length of the line.
LU Ticket Request for Central 13th December at 18:05
We are accepting London Underground ticket holders on the Central line, the entire length owing to defective trains.

Thank god the central line is assisted by the Liz line now, and it’s famous sardine tin loadings have subsided a lot because of it. If we were still pre 2022 the central line would be in serious trouble

And even then the Liz line has had issues and Bern suffering a large amount of cancellations.

It’s been pretty much a delay occurrence for a while now. Barring weekends mostly.

The refurbised Central Line train had a third trip out today. This was on BBC London at 6.30pm but there is a small clip below. The Mayor made a slight gaff when he said the Bakerloo line stock was 40 years old on the BBC news segment
