East London Line Closure

[jonny]

An interesting thought I had yesterday...

What will Guiness rule about the ELL when it closes for refurbishment next year? I don't think it will reopen as part of the Underground, so will Guiness say that we have to do it ALL by replacement bus? I can't see this happening. If they say that we don't have to do the ELL at all, they can't very well make us do shoreditch - can they?

What do you think will happen?

This has been discussed to death in the past, and I can't see Guinness coming up with a sensible solution to be honest.

They'll probably insist it has to be done somehow. God knows how ...

I can and I think who ever holds the record when the ELL closes will hold it for a few years.

OK I must have forgotten. Sorry for the redundant thread that I've started then.

If someone who remembers could link me to the thread in which it was previously discussed then I would very much like to read what people think.

Given that GWR have proven that they couldn't give two hoots about the record any more, they'll probably insist that you use the Rail Replacement Bus(es), just as they are with Shoreditch.

Cheers,
