It's fine for inner London but extending the Overground (Underground
really) concept any further, like to Croydon (for example), is just
too far.

Try the Tube to Heathrow as a particularly **** poor example of the
Underground going too far out – takes forever – and we didn’t always
have Heathrow Express.

It should be horses for courses.


100% agreed.
