However, there isn't a southern half to that circle;
there are a couple of orbital lines in south London,
but they don't join up (we'd need a rail link over or
under the river somewhere in Greenwich or
Woolwich, to get you from, say North Woolwich
to Woolwich Dockyard, or Canning Town to, er,
Maze Hill or something, and then some fairly
unlikely junctions and rerouting in south London
to join up at the other end). But it would be cool.


Isn't the East London Line extension the first step towards realising
this? If you want to find the vague plans google for "Orbirail"....
