TfL have unveiled a "future of transport" map which shows how the
Underground map (or rather "TfL map") would look in 2016 if they get
funding for the projects they want to build.

Some particular National Rail lines are included on the map as well as
Crossrail 1, Thameslink 2000, the ELLX, Cross River Transit, DLR
extensions, East London Transit, Greenwich Waterfront Transit, the West
London Tram, the Croydon Tramlink extensions, the Croxley Link, Terminal
5 and Stratford International.



No Chelsea-Hackney line though.


Completion is predicted for 2016 *at the earliest* if it were taken
ahead with Crossrail 1; if Crossrail 1 gets funding next week in the
Spending Review then it will have taken decades to get it and I don't
see anyone splashing out on Crossrail 2 within the same decade.
