The S8 stock will be ideal when the Met. reaches Watford Junction thru

I'm struggling to think why a passenger for central london will bother
take the round-the-houses route from watford junction via the met rather
than getting a train direct to euston. I don't see the business case for the
link. Is a huge volume of amersham - watford traffic expected or what?


He wouldn't. But there are any number of folks living close to Met.
line stations who would like to reach central Watford. Some want
access to the town center. Others will use the station for
interchange purposes.

Between say Wembley Park and Amersham there is considerable population.


So if the purpose is to benefit Watford shops and screw Harrow shops,
why is TfL even considering it?
