I'm sorry, Jack, but there are **no** fast line platforms at Queens Park,
just those on the slow lines.


Might be a question of terminology. There are platforms on the very
slow DC lines, and platforms on the "slow" AC lines, but not on the
fast AC lines (although I think one is an island platform that might be
able to show two faces, maybe with removal of fence or something).

But I was going on about a new connection from the DC lines to the AC
lines to allow trains from South Hampstead and Kilburn High Road to
proceed north without interfering with the Bakerloo. 458s converted to
dual voltage maybe (I'd rather see them anywhere but wasted on the ELL,
which can have the 313s and 508s).
