Do we think that the Watford DC lines will always run into their

That has been considered, but it's frequently been knocked back as
demand into Euston is pretty high.

Are there any plans for some sort of regular scheduled service from the
NLL, say to Queens Park?


Not for many years. *In the early seventies I can recall travelling
from Maida Vale to Primrose Hill by changing at Queens Park.


That would be when there was a peak service from Broad Street to
Watford (and reverse).

This was briefly diverted into Liverpool Street and then cut down to
one service that was cancelled so often that people didn't risk it and
this was used as evidence for lack of demand and it was withdrawn.
