Default Cheapest way to extend Bakerloo south of E&C?

Jim Brown wrote:
I'm going to assume that extensive tunneling is out of the question
here for reasons of expense but could the Bakerloo be linked up
'easily' to any of the NR lines around there? The tube is fairly deep
at E&C so it would be quite a lot of work to raise the line up to
viaduct level but could it join the line to Peckam via Denmark hill
and then maybe on to Hays via Lewisham freeing up terminal space in
London and utilising the Bakerloo infrastructure more efficently?

Any thoughts?


Some such scheme has been on the cards before now, but there's no plans
to proceed with anything at the moment.
