The Zero minute Watford

Post by Going Underground »

I will be making my next full network attempt during Tube Olympics on 26th July and currently trying to put a route together.. Has anyone tried the "zero" minute connection in and out of Watford and if so has this worked or not?

If this doesn't then would be 15mins for the next one out.....

It depends what platforms the trains are due in and out of each other. If they have to cross in front of each other then its more than possible. However this is unlikely as I believe they are timetabled 30 seconds appart if the later train has to traverse the points.

Yes, as moley says it depends which platform the train is pulling into. If it has to cross infront of the train in the platform then youy can make it most times. If the train can go straight into the platform then you've got no chance as doors close before train pulling in stops.
