Default North London Line update

Yep. And it was from 1973 to 1979, reopening simultaneously with the
Jubilee Line's opening. Had they but known where the Jubilee would go
in the end...


Wasn't the Jubilee ("Fleet") Line originally expected to take over the ELL,
being extended to Lewisham from NCG ?

Wasn't it also going to have an interchange at Aldwych ?

Now that the Jubilee line to "Charing Cross" is now only used for
TV adverts (apparently), is there any justification for keeping the current
arrangement ?

It doesn't look right that there is a London Terminus that isn't on the
Circle
Line (or that it is, but it is called something other than the name of the
NR
station, towhit Embankment)

Why do we need two stations so close together on the Northern Line (on the
Bakerloo
Line, I could sort of understand it if it were renamed Trafalgar Square, and
shewn
as a walking route to Charing Cross NR)
