3. Find a more relevant newsgroup or forum. Local road issues in Watford
are OT for utl.

There is a thread on the Abbey Flyer and no doubt the Met ext to Watford
Junc will come up. If Watford can't be raised here then delete the Abbey
Flyer thread. I have no idea why my news reader doesn't quote properly.
Wasn't a problem before I went to Windows 7.


You replied below the previous poster's signature, so there will be
readers who have not seen what you actually said. I had to bypass my
newsreader's normal behaviour to get your words into this post to reply
to them. Your newsreader software may be a bit stupid, but I suspect you
could learn to use it so that your posts followed the normal Usenet
conventions.

As for OT, the Met is a London railway, even though it goes outside, as
would the Abbey Flyer be if it were Overgrounded. The link road has no
connection with London as such, though to be honest I would not have
bothered to object.

I don't get the point that you are making. The Abbey Flyer is not a London
railway so why does the proposed take over by TfL get discussed here? When
and if the Abbey Flyer becomes a TfL railway then it would become valid to
discuss it even though it is in Herfordshire.

Because the "L" in TfL is London.

ps You are still posting your replies into the signature field, many
people won't either read or reply as a result.
