First update of the day, the team departed from Heathrow T4 at 05:45:30, so are technically already 1m30s up on schedule.
One day I shall return!

Andi must have caught the losing of the tickey syndrome off of me! Any ideas what time they are aiming for, ie. are they 15 mins down on their planned time, or 15 mins down on record time? Definitely chose a good day for not starting at Amersham though given the problems up in the NW corner early this morning!

As far as I know they are 15 down on their schedule which I think was quite tight anyway. Not sure what time their schedule got them in for.... maybe Matt, err I mean Scrxisi can enlighten us...

Thanks for that Sam, I suspected it would be 15 down on their schedule, wonder how tight "tight" is though! Appears to be good service everywhere at the moment for them!

I hope that they're not heading for the Met./Picc. Uxbridge branch - which is currently suspended due to trespassers on the track at Rayners Lane. :(

The Uxbridge branch is now running again :), albeit with delays .... but there's a complete shut-down through Great Portland Street, because of a signal failure. The latter has been going on for quite a while!
