Ah, that takes me back! It's amazing how much has changed since then: that
document still talks about Silverlink and of course there's no mention of
the Met going to Watford Junction. Nor, of course, had HS2 been envisaged
back then, and hence not the rebuilding of Ruston, either.
I guess the idea of taking over the Chiltern route didn't last long,
either. The south-eastern branch as actually being built is shorter than
they envisaged back then, too.
