Why have Wimbledon and the surrounding communties been forgotten when it
comes to enhancing orbital rail services around London and to Heathrow
Airport?


Bloody hell - you've got the only station in London to have the tube,
trains *and* trams, and now you want the ELL as well? What next, a DLR
branch?

I struggle to see where an orbital route through Wimbledon would go.
There's a conspicuous absence of any orbitally-oriented railway lines to
run one on! Perhaps you'd like to give up some of the Waterloo services to
run ELL trains from Clapham Junction?

Anyway, hope the meeting goes well!
