I'd lay money on the actual old kent road station ending up in the middle
of the 2 proposals if this extension ever gets built.

but was taken out because Bromley didn't support it (actively discouraged
it)


I can kind of see their point. Would you really want to switch to having to
squeeze onto a tube train in the rush hour when up until now you've been used
to mainline sized trains? Also tube trains arn't fast and the journey could end
up taking somewhat longer.
