Its all gone quiet with the bakerlook. Anyone know what the latest is?

Also is the northern line extension underway yet or is it still in the
planning phase?

IIRC, the government gave its final approval on the Northern Line
Extension. But I know nothing more at this time.


Work has started. There are updates at
https://tfl.gov.uk/travel-informatio...line-extension


A year to fit two stations out and another year to test and commission
the extension! You'd think an underground extension was mature
technology by now.

Has there been any discussion of the names of the two lines into which
the Northern Line will be split? I think the Greathead line would be a
good name for the Morden - Bank - Barnet / Mill Hill East line.
