What is now called the "Overground" is actually part of "British

works under National Rail rules/signalling and passenger

But doesn't the Metropolitan line between Uxbridge and Amersham?

The Metropolitan Line doesn't run between Uxbridge and Amersham. ;-)

Whilst the *actual* boundaries are North of Amersham and South of
Harrow-on-the-Hill, the change between Network Rail and London
Underground rules occurs at Harrow-on-the-Hill and Amersham stations.

My mistake, I indeed meant Harrow-on-the-Hill.
