What is the logic to why it does? It has very little in common with
LU, and a lot in common with the rest of Silverlink (which isn't
shown). I remember it starting to appear, but I never understood why
it did (or the rest of BR suburban services didn't).

Well, I am 32 so that might explain why I didn't know it wasn't always
on the map; but perhaps Ken always had a plan to take over the line?

It is a horrid line; horrid trains (even though I quite like
refurbished 313s), horrid passengers (I've only ever felt unsafe on
this line - even during the day), horrid stations etc but it is quite a
useful service that a lot of people probably still don't know exists,
or consider when route planning.

I have to say that with some money spent on the stations, staffing,
security and new rolling stock, it could well be a plausible
'overground' service. But are they REALLY going to brand it
'OVERGROUND'??!
