Would it be possible for LO to run services right round to Shepherd's

It would be possible - and I think Paul C recently said that it was an
idea is on TfL London Rail's radar (but that's a *very different*
thing from it actually happening).


It was a reference to the May Modern Railways which has a London
Overground feature in it. There was a quote saying TfL were
considering extending the CP journeys to Clapham Junction via Balham.
They'd terminate in Platform 17 (I assume that makes sense to those
who are familiar with CJ). There was no more detail than this in the
article. As a non expert on the rail network south of the Thames I
couldn't say how feasible or otherwise the TfL idea actually is.
