AFAIK tube trains are all owned outright by LU. Is this not the case
with the 378s on LO then?

London Overground is quite different to LUL. It is operated as a
concession, not by a TfL operator directly.

In that case I can't help wondering if the service would be better if
TfL ran it directly.

The main reason is that in general TfL don't own the tracks which
in some cases are shared with TOCs. Another reason is that your
Tory friends don;t like state enterprise.

The main, reason, surely, is to keep the strike-prone LU unions away
from LO and the DLR?

Now you come to mention it.
