Paddington is hardly an option. It is also well utilized. Could
Kensington Olympia handle some Chiltern trains? Perhaps there is a
bigger role for TfL's Central Line in taking some of the load
carried by Chiltern.

It would I suppose be possible to evict the car park or whatever it
is from the space formerly occupied by the Motorail loading bays and
create some platforms there. But the West London Line is pretty
full, and it's not clear how trains would get there from the
Chiltern line - the direct route parallel to the LUL Central Line
between North Acton and Shepherds Bush has long gone.

It is a pity that the North Acton and Shepherds Bush has gone. I
guess the Central Line could be droppep into a sub surface trench and
a new link built above it.

Wouldn't building a flyover from the North Pole depot access to the Perivale
line be just a bit cheaper?
