Default Bakerloo Line Extension

"Bored Of The Rings" wrote in message ...
Whatever happened to the extension south of E&C? and where was it gonna be
extended to?
You can see it here on this old tube map

The map is quite interesing, in a couple of ways. It shows the
proposed Northern Line extension from Finsbury Park to Alexandra
Palace (via Highgate HL), but not the section from Mill Hill East to
Bushey Heath (via Edgware).

I hadn't realised that abandonment of these schemes wasn't
simultaneous.

Also, the roundel on the front uses the word 'Railways', rather than
'Underground' - when, and for how long, was this practice current?
