Correct: just under 5 months.


Obviously there was the 30's plan for the southern extension to
Camberwell, thwarted by the war - but were there ever any earlier
plans or intentions to take the line further south?


I'm slightly surprised by Clive's chronology of the southern extension plans
because additional stock was ordered in 1949 for the extension which were
eventually used on the Piccadilly.
