Its a pity the tube doesn't have local and express lines like the new
york
subway. I know the met sort of has them but its not really the same thing
since its way out of the centre.

This is something that could have been considered for Crossrail.
Crossrail could have had more stations, with express trains skipping
the "local" stations.

Of course costs would have risen exponentially.

Essentially Crossrail is the express service and the Central line is the
local service. Slightly different from New York as they don't follow each
other exactly but the same basic idea.
