Default London Underground superlatives: the oldest … the largest?

The additional tracks from North Acton to West Ruislip were built by
the GWR but always intended for the Central Line, and when they were
opened in 1947 the GWR local servicewas withdrawn (though Greenford
Main Line station had one up train a day as late as 1964).

I've classed these, and the similar tracks of the District Line running
beside the LTSR, as "takeover".
