Covers the London Liverpool Street to Cambridge/Stansted main line and
London area branches. Quick highlights of proposals:

* 12 car trains London to Cambridge and Stansted in 2012; 'longer'
trains on the other routes

They're going to have to get their skates on to build the Cambridge island
platform then!

* 10 to 15 minute reduction on London to Cambridge and Stansted
journey times

Welcome for sure.

* extension of London Overground services from Stratford to
Northumberland Park (or a shuttle service)
* grade-separation of Coppermill Junction and four-tracking from there
to Tottenham Hale

But not North of there?

The paper does explain why.
