And what about "replacement of old Network Rail engineering features"!
A bit of airbushing of history going on there...

And it's somewhat confusing to even bring Network Rail into the
picture, as LU took over the line directly from British Rail in 1994.
Network Rail has thus never had custody of the line.

Looking at CULG, it's intriguing to note that within LU, the W&C line
has been under Central Line management, then Bakerloo line management,
and then East London Line management. When the East London Line ceases
to be an LU operation then the W&C will need yet another new management
home. I wonder what the reason is for all these changes.
