Do they not want it or is there some reason they can't have it? I don't think NR will let them have it. It's a potentially useful diversionary route. This makes it sound like it's something on the table - AFAIAA it's not. |

Though if they did own it there would always be the possibility of laying a 4th rail into Euston and running either a branch of the bakerloo or met line S Stock into there. Though whether that would make any operational sense is another matter. -- Spud |

I think long-term it makes sense to wire it, north of H&W at least, and fit pantographs to the LO stock. Then it would be more useful for that purpose. Also, if there was a long-term block the shoegear could be refitted to the 350/1s. Neil -- Neil Williams Put my first name before the @ to reply. |
