In order to do this, the entire track had to be lowered by 2m in one night. The ground below the track was excavated during the day (with the rails held up by a wooden trestle while trains still ran over them), and 900 workmen simultaneously eased the rails down after the station closed. It reopened the next morning with no break in service}
