Minor delayTfL: Severe Delays

Part of the line is short of trains

TfL’s reason: District Line: No service between Earl's Court and Wimbledon and SEVERE DELAYS between Earl's Court and Edgware Road whilst we fix a signal failure at East Putney. GOOD SERVICE on the rest of the line. Tickets are being accepted on London Buses, South Western Railway and Mildmay Line.

no service

Higher is better; the hairline is the threshold below which a line stops counting as running normally. A dashed stretch along the bottom is a period we have no score for, and it says which kind. No service is the small hours, when the line is not running. No data is us: either nothing reached us, or — more often — we had nothing to compare that stretch against, because a line TfL has declared disrupted for long enough loses those hours from what we count as normal. Neither is a delay, and we would rather show the hole than draw a line across it.

Across this window, for 8 hours TfL declared a good service while we were measuring a real delay; and for 16 hours TfL was reporting disruption that our measurements did not pick up, which is the direction we are likelier to be wrong in. Our band changes only once a condition has held for fifteen minutes, so this is a picture of sustained running rather than every flicker — the chart above is where a short sharp incident still shows. Every other page here asks you to take our word for it; this one is the argument with the evidence attached.

One direction can be in trouble while the other runs perfectly, which is exactly what a single line-wide status hides. Platform indicators name the destination rather than the direction — we will too, once the measurement service publishes where each direction ends.

Sections are scored on their own, so a line can be fine end to end and still have one stretch that is not. Only measured sections appear here.
