Genuinely fascinating photos there. A few comments; http://imgur.com/a/1QI7M/stratford_nll/WBb2q - I can't see any Mind The Gap warnings?!! http://imgur.com/a/1QI7M/stratford_nll/hMiKK and http://imgur.com/a/1QI7M/stratford_nll/YMR6d both remind me a bit of the old ticket machines on the Underground Loving some of the really fascinating photos, such as these; http://imgur.com/a/1QI7M/stratford_nll/wV8F7 http://imgur.com/a/1QI7M/stratford_nll/wt2kp http://imgur.com/a/1QI7M/stratford_nll/52TuM http://imgur.com/a/1QI7M/stratford_nll/8wOQo http://imgur.com/a/1QI7M/stratford_nll/gGslQ but of course whilst I may laugh at them / 'poke fun at them' they do all set the scene such that if you said you were at work then I could envisage exactly what it looks like from your 'desk' (well, workstation). Anyway thanks for posting/sharing the excellent photos.

What do the red triangles at Stratford signify?

Ben - you have to use the red exit triangles to get a second train into an occupied platform (ie: getting the shunt aspect on the incoming signal to show proceed). Each platform can take two 3-car units (just!). If you use the normal grey triangles when a platform is occupied, then the signal in will never clear.

* smiles * - I thought itAEb was a BBC Micro from the thumbnail. It must still be 20, if not 30 years old, though. Good to see the good people of the metropolis being cared for by reliable technology.

I am not sure of the age of the workstation, but I think it is less than 20 years old. I shall ask my colleagues, who used to work at Stratford C Panel (ie: one of the old NX panels) before the resignalling Notes: * Stratford A+B Panels, along with other boxes, became the Stratford workstation at Liverpool Street IECC * "Stratford C Panel" is a name is still used on occasion to relate to the Stratford NLL workstation Log in to reply |

That would make it somewhere between 1996 and 2000 I think. SimSig Boss Log in to reply |
