And the Bakerloo has capacity for a few more tph that at present.A Bakerloo line extension would have more flexibility (not having such a tight schedule) than a Victoria line extension, and the Bakerloo has at least as good a route through the West End. I think it could be ramped up to the little used four-track Blackfriars line south of the Elephant & Castle. From there it could provide useful services along Southern lines. One possible route could run via Herne Hill, Tulse Hill and Streatham; a Bakerloo service in that area would perhaps be preferable to another service to Victoria. Another possible route could run via Peckham Rye to Lewisham. |
