Summer train
A&B will not close in this summer because the new line opened after garden construction.
North deck line is cooler place than south or west garden lines, so suitable for summer.
But maybe still closed in the daytime. It runs in the early morning and at dusk or evening
The construction will be finished next weekend.
Please wait the next A&B report!
