"Sutton-Wimbledon-Tooting is in abeyance since 2004."

"Sutton-Wimbledon makes less sense than Wimbledon-Tooting"

I don't agree. The Wimbledon-Sutton line is a failure, for all sorts of historical reasons which have been gone into before. If is were converted into an LRT service, one could use the maximum amount of the existing private RoW (which is its real asset) with a minimum of on-street running (a) in Morden to connect with the Northern Line and (b) in the St Helier area so that it served that area more comprehensively, it might get a decent level of patronage given the better frequency that LRT operation implies.
