Saw a District Line at Barking headed to Parsons Green Possibly going to stable as no relief operator available as we have duties uncovered due to lack of operators (sick covid annual leave) and all spares are already allocated work |

Circle and Hammersmith & City lines now listed as "severe delays" instead of just minor delays due to train cancellations. Assuming the driver shortage/absence problem has gotten worse as we get closer to Christmas/New Years.

There is an LO train parked in Battersea Park since I assume Christmas Eve. The station is closed today. Why would it spend its holidays away from its depot?

I believe the Northern Line does similar with a train parked overnight at Battersea Power Station, done so between the late night and early morning shuttle service between there and Kennington. |

Seemed to be quite a few turns to Tooting Broadway on the Northern line today. Not sure if there had been an issue that had caused delays or a shortage of drivers.

Points failure Camden Town 13.05 which required all southbound Edgware trains to run via Bank and reverse at Kennington siding/Tooting. |

Morden-bound trains are now running faster between Clapham Common and Clapham South, now at around 50mph.

Tuesday 4th Jan 2022 at approx. 23:05, Eastbound Met train terminated in Platform 1 at Moorgate and ran West towards Chesham off the platform. A very unusual move, and even the driver's first time doing so. I was surprised to see the train able to carry out that move in ATO too.
(edited as I'd put the wrong date in!)

I did not know if it was the past (Tuesday), present (5th January) or future (11:05pm).  Occasionally trains do terminate there unscheduled during peak hours, especially hammersmith and city line trains |
