I wonder:

Have they got a convincing explanation of how they're going to do this
without getting fouled up in traffic?

Why does the King's Cross branch go the wrong way?

Why does the Brixton branch go via Lambeth North rather than Elephant?


The King's Cross branch arrives from the North in order not to foul up
the Euston Road. IIRC the plans say that the crossing at Euston will
be the only place where trams won't have absolute priority over
traffic, because it would cause mayhem.

As for the Brixton branch, perhaps it will fit in better with the
remodelling of the elephant if this branch doesn't go that way. Or
perhaps it's just because via Lambeth North is the natural route that
the buses to Brixton take at the moment.

I wondered why they run via Stockwell rather than Brixton Road, though
- is it just because interchange with the Northern line would be less
convenient at Oval, or is there another reason?
