What about a diveunder under the mainline at watford junction, and
then taking over the disused rickmansworth branch, and thence to
chalfont & latimer - to take over the chesham branch of the met?


There isn't any disused Rickmansworth branch any more. All there are
nowadays is two routes very much NOT disused, the canal towpath, and
the Ebury Way. You would be about equally unpopular trying to take
over either one.

By far the most popular project that the National Lottery's
Millennium Fund ever financed was the National Cycle Network. If
you try to destroy it, you will not be popular.
