I could do that, as long as someone sends me a comprehensive block-out list...

Presumably the ruling here is that you must stop at Waterloo if it's one of the 14, so therefore if you pass-through on a Northern Line southbound train you cannot count that as your visit and must stop there at some other stage?
Agreed........If there are stopping options they must be used......

On the TfL website it states that Warren Street station is closed but lists the station as a Victoria line station (not a Northern line station) and the Victoria line isn't running, can anyone confirm if its closed or not?

So are we having pass throughs allowed for some stations but not for others?

Yes but all the totally closed stations are going to be withdrawn, so will not be included in the remaining 14......

If you use the Journey Planner for that date it only gives bus connections to Warren Street. So I think the whole station must be closed.

Actually hang on a sec, wasn't Russel Sq included last time and and was closed so a pass through was allowed...... so yes it is only the stations that are inacessible that should be excluded....... I think :?

No Russell Square was still open but only in one direction IIRC?

EDIT: Just remembered it was closed in both directions and we had to go all the way up to Kings Cross as well for the double back

Hayes and Yeading have AFC Wimbledon at home - apparently the attendance might hit 1,000!
That'll be a real Ding-Dons game

OK the following stations will be excluded due to line closure:

Highbury & Islington
Pimlico
Vauxhall
Brixton
Farringdon
Barbican
Canary Wharf
North Greenwich


My ruling on the contentious stations (if drawn) is as follows:

Warren Street (TfL state Victoria Line Station closed for refurb)
If drawn must be visited by Northern Line.

Waterloo (TfL state Northern Line SB not stopping)
If drawn must be visited by Nortern Line NB, Jubilee Line or Bakerloo Line.

The post challenge meeting will be at the usual pub (Horse & Groom) for beer & darts.
Can all those planning to attend please confirm so I know how many envelopes to bring.
