Are you seriously suggesting they should have celebrated the 150th
anniversary of a bit of unimportant Essex railway seven years ago?

No, but it is a bit disingenuous to do the same for a bit of unimportant
London railway now...

And anyway, what about the bits of "old" formation re-used by Docklands
and Tramlink... I don't see their 150th being celebrated.

While not celebrated as lavishly, ISTR there was some awareness of the
200th anniversary of bits of what is now Tramlink.
