Request ID: FOI-1953-2122 Date published: 14 December 2021
You asked
Dear TFL,
I would like to request the planned timings for the Track Recording Train with the number 776 or 765. The reason for my request about this is because I would like to photograph the 1960 Tube Stock train that is used for the Track Recording Train and I would use the photographs for my own personal interest. I understand that the information about this train might not be allowed to be published however, other timetables for Sandite Trains do exist so I was wondering if it would be possible to see the timetables. If it is not then I completely understand. Thank You

Thank you for your request received by Transport for London (TfL) on 27 November 2021.
Your request has been considered in accordance with the requirements of the Freedom of Information (FOI) Act and our information access policy. You asked:

Unfortunately we do not hold the information you have requested. We do produce special train notices for the paths of the Track Recorder Train. But there isn’t a regular timetable. The requests are sporadic and will continually vary for each date and line, only being produced for operational requirements as requested by the team as and when. The Track Recorder Train runs are often planned at short notice and without publication due to the potential for regular change and the working of manual alterations which affect other services.
Please see the attached information sheet for details of your right to appeal.
Yours sincerely
Eva Hextall FOI Case Management Team General Counsel Transport for London
