Eddie,

Since I no longer seem to be able to post to

Yes. Shortly before the introduction of the new
rulebook, LLTC was formally abolished as a
safeworking system. The sections were then worked
under the ATC rules with appropriate local
modifications where necessary.

There are, consequently, no LLTC sections left.

If we put all this together in the case of Camberwell - Riversdale
where it is said that Riversdale still has an LLTC-type
accepting lever, do we conclude that this falls in the
category of "appropriate local modifications" to the ATC
rules?

Does anyone have a copy of the relevant documentation?
