Another oddity is that there don't seem to be enough stations between
Highbury & Islington and Broad Street. I thought it went Canonbury,
Dalston Junction, Haggerston, Hoxton; but only two of these are shown
(I can't read the text but it looks like it could be the first two).

The map is right in that respect. Haggerston closed in 1940 after bomb
damage. Hoxton will be new when it opens on the ELL.


From south/east to north/west:

Broad Street opened 1865-11-01 closed 1986-06-27
Shoreditch (NLR) opened 1865-11-01 closed 1940-10-03
Hoxton new station
Haggerston opened 1867-09-02 closed 1940-05-05
Dalston Junction[*] opened 1865-11-01 closed 1986-06-27
Mildmay Park opened 1880-10-01 closed 1934-09-30
Canonbury opened 1859-09-01 moved 1870-12-01
Highbury & Islington opened 1850-09-26.
[*] On the "happy afterthought"; I don't have dates for the original
lines to the docks.
