There are a couple of other stops I'd be keen to see as well (York
Road, North Pole/North Acton) that are less important and very possibly
not worth the money.

I am still of the opinion that York Road Piccadilly should be reopened
as soon as possible - the regen frenzy of the Kings Cross Railway Lands
will eventually make it imperative to fill the hole.

The best part is that the station has lift shafts that descend all the
way to platform level, like the ones at Earl's Court and Caledonian
Road. As a result, all that would be needed is the construction of
escalators. If you build them in the right direction you may even be
able to do behind-barrier interchange with a new station on the NLL
(which is supposed to be close to the Piccadilly in this area).
