I can't find what estimated date the line reopens. Any ideas ?

1st week of next February, weekdays only. Seven days a week from next June.

Glen there are so many threads on this line now (as clicking on the tag I added under your post will attest). Is the best way to get the latest most up-to-date information just to visit your website and click on the latest news link towards the top right of your home page?

Got a letter from Network Rail through my door rather charmingly addressed to "lineside neighbour" with all the details. Unfortunately I don't have a scanner so I had to try and take photos instead. I think it's legible if you zoom in. Basically it says they will be working 7am to 9pm Mon-Sat, 8am to 8pm Sun with additional all night working too...

Will this work include improving the appearance of the bridge across Green Lanes?

It got a new sign recently but the bridge itself looks rusty and is graffitied.

Not part of the plan as far as I can see...

Has anyone attended any of these sessions? What happened? The last one is at South Tottenham on Monday.

A very good, detailed article about the whole Barking - Gospel Oak electrification starts on page 23 of the Rail Engineer https://issuu.com/railmedia/docs/tre-september-2016/1

There is also a shorter but just as good article in Modern Railways September magazine available in WH Smith and other good newsagents & supermarkets now!

Thank you very much for that link Glenn.  It gives a really clear picture of the work involved that even a lay person can understand.  Frankly, I had no idea of the scale of the operation.
