An alternative view is that eventually we will have to grasp the nettle

I can't see how thats possible. The network is just too complex. LU
can't even manage to make the northern line reliable with 2 junctions!
What hope for the south london 3rd rail system.

I wonder if you can do the South London 3rd rail network in a day,
and if anyone's ever done it? Or even in 2 days?

I seem to remember doing an awful lot of it on a railtour once!
