Incidentally, NLL services to/from Stratford are diverted to Queen's

I went on one of these last time they ran. In the westbound direction,
the train even stopped for a couple of minutes in the (rather
overgrown) platform at Primrose Hill. (I guessed this was part of the
timetable, as recovery time.)


I hope they consider reviving Primrose Hill if frequent services start
running through there, because it would make a more convenient
interchange with the Northern line than any other North London Railway
station would.
