Just curious - does anyone know what form the architecture will take,
will it be like the JLE, crossrail or something completely new? Also I
presume the 2 new stations will have platform doors too which I imagine
will mean some new kit on the trains - unless its already installed.


I doubt that platform doors will be fitted. There might be passive provision
but doors on just 2 Northern Line stations doesn't look likely to me.


I always thought they were an expensive white elephant that served little
purpose but TfL seems to like them - they're going in on crossrail - so I
wouldn't put it past them to install just on 2 stations.
