Shepherds Bush won't be opening any time soon. Seems the platforms are too
narrow to allow for all the shoppers in the Westfield centre and therefore
looks like it might have to be demolished and rebuilt before opening!



What is the current width of the platforms here?
I'm reminded of Clapham Common and Clapham North which have survived
as very narrow island platforms on the northern Line.


Not much - the photos on Mr Thant's blog show it well. Linked to earlier,
but in case you missed it:
