Clearly, throughout the line (except at Heathrow) the Cockfosters

I expect passengers wishing to travel due south from Park Royal to
Ealing Broadway would be amused by the idea that they should get a
northbound train.


The solution is, quite obviously, to close the branch of the Piccadilly

Hmm, there's still a problem with anyone going from west of Kensington to
Acton Town or South Ealing, though. Better close those too.

Central, avoiding the round-the-houses bit in southern Acton.
