Of course; my gripe (which i admit is mostly just for the fun of griping)
is that many of these could have been got right when the lines were built
in the first place.


But many of those lines were built by rival companies, competing with each
other, not co-operating.

What's less forgivable is not adding a Northern line station at Morden Road
for interchange with Tramlink. Yeah, I know. Costs. But it's still a real
missed opportunity.

Anyway, i don't know what order those lines were built in, but whichever
was built later could have put a station at the crossing, that's the
thing.

They probably considered it, and decided against it because they'd have
trouble getting a good working agreement with their rivals.

(To give an extreme hypothetical example, if you're the second company and
you charge two shillings for a ticket to London, you're not likely to build
an interchange with a company that only charges one shilling!)



Brockley really ought to be easy. I have no idea how useful it would be,
though.


It'd be useful for me whenever I visit my dad. I live in Crystal Palace,
he's in Blackheath. Either I have to change at London Bridge (which means
Zone 1) or spend forever on a 202. The Brockley interchange could be a
perfect compromise.
