Default So what's going wrong with the Jubilee line?

It was officially a railway under engineers' possession until it was
handed over to the County Council, if you remember.


There are pictures of the Ouse bridge with a tarmac path over one
of the spans (the other being derelict). So I don't think it can
have been a railway all the way. Another reason why the "use the
un-ripped up old track" issue is an oversimplification.

This at Swavesey for example:

and a little further west: http://www.panoramio.com/photo/10391958


The railway only extended to Fen Drayton by then.


About here then: http://www.panoramio.com/photo/4580596

Oh dear, more track that we should have stopped people ripping up, so
they could run trains on it!
