I am disappointed that the scheme was modified from the earlier
proposals which involved going to CJ via Tulse Hill/Streatham Hill
(IIRC).

Yeah I was thinking the other day that this is more logical

(A guess) Imported delays from the ELL would affect more services
maybe? Services on the Peckham Rye - Tulse Hill, Streatham Hill -
Balham, Balham-Victoria (slow lines) axes stood to be disrupted if the
old proposal were adopted.

or is it
something to do with the E* being removed from the line through
Brixton so the ELLE can use the freed up capacity?

The E*star didn't use the SLL tracks anyway, did it?

I used to use East Brixton in the 60s just for fun because it was so
kind of rustic and sleepy perched up as it was on a viaduct. there was
no ticket office; you got a hand written ticket from a guy in a booth
on the platform. "Tulls Hill" was a typical destination.
