Actually, at Morden the trains presently only reverse in 2 of the 3 tracks. The 3rd track is used for trains entering or leaving service. This makes the stepping back operation simpler, as all reversing trains share an island platform. It also means that passengers don't have to swap islands if they miss a train.

When the Northern line gets its planned capacity upgrade after CBTC is installed in 2011, then probably all 3 platforms will need to be used to reverse the proposed 35tph.
