According to the story "New East London Line 'done by 2010'"

I saw the article in the Metro. Build a viaduct connecting Shorditch
with the old North London at Bishopsgate, reinstate the track up to
Dalston Junc, build 4 new stations, hardly a challange to be completed
in 7 years time and a mere snip at £900m. Mind you compared to the
Dome money bettre spent.
How long did it take the Great Central to build the London extention.
We seem to have lost the ability to do the simplest tasks in anything
less than extortionate lengths of time and expend billions of pounds.
