FOI request detail

Central Line Rail Adhesion Train Timings

Request ID: FOI-1906-1920
Date published: 04 February 2020

You asked

I would like to request the planned timings for Central Line Rail Adhesion Trains numbers 488 (Eastern) & 489 (Western) which will commence operation soon. As there is no amended Central Line Working Timetable for the Adhesion period so I cannot get this information from the Working Timetables available on the TfL site. The information for the Rail Adhesion Train Timings on other lines (Piccadilly/Metropolitan) are readily available in the amended working timetables on the Tfl site so I don't believe this information in sensitive. The purpose of the request is to allow me to photograph the 1959 stock trains that run on trains 488/489 for my own personal interest. Thankyou
