Presumably they're so cheap only because they're *not* tube stations?


Perhaps if the link is ever built, LU could utilise NR's wonderful new
modular stations? Like at Greenhithe or Mitcham Eastfields, but
probably shorter and therefore less expensive. Of course it's equally
likely that the 'not invented by us' principle will apply...


Not NR's either. The concept is owned by Dean & Dyball, who were
recently bought by Balfour Beatty.


I understand there was some financing from Alliterative Associates
involved.
