"In terms of catchment, the Thornton Heath branch has always looked the best bet to me"I agree. I think, though, that the Bakerloo is the better bet for extension than the Victoria. David Fairthorne's idea of bringing it to the surface south of Elephant, capturing two of the four tracks thence to Loughborough Junction, then going via Herne Hill and Tulse Hill to Streatham, then swinging round to Streatham Common and running through Thornton Heath to one of the Croydons looks best to me. Restore Walworth Road and Camberwell Green stations, double-deck Herne Hill and Tulse Hill stations as necessary, then perhaps go underground from Streatham Common to Croydon, beneath the Brighton main line, with tube stations replacing Norbury, Thornton Heath and Selhurst. |
