    The slow lines at Atherstone are the lines with platforms on them. At that point the lines are down slow, down fast, up fast and up slow.

    One of the slow lines was closed for a while recently due to a land slip. I assume it’s now reopened? But there’s a 9 day closure coming up soon too, which might be linked to this?
