Default East London Line update

] IMO tho extending the ELL south is a bad
idea anyway. It should have been kept as
a self contained LUL line with a northern extension


Except that the new large depot will be at Selhurst.


Well if it had been kept as an LUL line they wouldn't
have needed a new large depot would they?


Yes they would, the northern extension plus the increased frequency
necessitate (off the top of my head) a quadrupling of the fleet size.

That's why my vehicle's the Piccadilly Line -
It's the size of a county and it comes every two and a half minutes
