Kings' Cross ECML Upgrade and the Regent's Canal

[londontransit]

The third in the series covering the ECML upgrade at King's Cross and how the Regent's canal compromised the upgrade work that was finished this year, has been published.

The track layout at King's Cross is of course very constrained - not because there wasn't enough land or anything like that but because of the Regent's canal, which since the station's opening in 1852 has made it very difficult to even improve the station's track layout to any great extent.

The other two posts if you haven't seen these are as follows:

King’s Cross tunnels & canal aqueduct #1

(Edited to correct links.)

Seems OK now.
Nope, my bad - I get a 'Site can't be reached' message (clicked the wrong link first)

Try https://hydeparknow.uk/2021/12/03/kings-cross-tunnels-canal-aqueduct-3/ instead.
