Clapham Junction to Shepherds Bush is becoming increasingly
popular.The existing platform two now gets fairly crowded at peak
times and when delays occur. Do Network Rail propose to extend the
platform by filling in the void left by the closure of platform one?.
In which case are the existing supporting pillars, supporting the
former trackbed up to the load?. I am surprised that the Cambridge
solution is being considered.


Out of interest, why cannot Platform 1 be reinstated ? I've not been
to CJ for some years as you may be able to deduce
