I was in Watford today and couldn't help but notice the large new
construction that was in progress next to Watford Station on the
Metropolitan Line. It looked like either a block of apartments or a
business park.

Does anybody know if this new construction means a longer career for
Watford Met, if the Croxley Link ever happens?

Also, I went and had a look at the DC lines that used to carry
Bakerloo trains, and I can confirm that the Up Watford (Northbound)
line still has long portions of fourth rail which are correctly
seated. Surprisingly, so does the defunct Croxley Green branch...
