I overheard someone the other evening talking about a planned new

Can't see anything like this at http://www.alwaystouchout.com OR at
John Rowland's site so as far as I'm concerned that means it doesn't
exist

Actually, about 5 years ago Hillingdon Council were talking about
extending the Piccadilly Line from Uxbridge (sic) to Heathrow. AFAIK it
never made it into any published documents. I don't know what route was
considered, but running via Hayes couldn't make the scheme any more
implausible than it already was.

Is it so implausible? I don't know about Hayes, but couldn't they just run
a loop round Ealing Common depot?
