Yes, there's actually been some! The steel frames of a couple of buildings
have gone up. One of them looks like it'll have a track through the centre
but isn't long enough for a shed and is too high for a washer so no idea
what it could be. Other one looks like it'll be offices.

For some reason they're still persisting on putting up another fence with razor spikes on the top - there's already a wall - between the running line and the depot. Quite what the purpose of this is is anyones guess. If vandals can get onto the running line all they have to do is walk up or down to where the
line connects to the depot lines to get into the depot so .... fuck knows.
More money wasted by TfL.

We know that the rCyartistsrCO particularly favour the 24TS as their palette of choice, so theyrCOre presumably trying to make it as hard as possible to get into the depot sidings. They probably know itrCOs dangerous to walk on the electrified running lines, plus theyrCOll be well covered by cameras, so thatrCOs not to preferred route in.

They'd have to cross the lines anyway whether there was a fence or not so presuming they do it after the current is switched off and wear balaklavas
I don't see how it'll make a difference particularly as they'd probably
gain access either via cockfosters carpark or the green space near oakwood.
