No, but as you mentioned, only a fraction of the old network exists

I'm sorry, but I agree with the earlier comment that you seem to know
6ugger all about it - or at least not about the history of it - since
the majority of the old network DOES exist.

The only bits that do not exist today are Broad Street itself from
Dalston Junction, and the short electrified sections to Kensington and
Earls Court, and the Rickmansworth bit.

I suggest that the Kensington section still exists! Other
non-existent bits are the direct kink from Bushey to the branches and
(as an electrified passenger line) the Kew Bridge branch.

The rest - Euston to Watford and Richmond - Dalston (junction) remain
- by far the greatest mileage, the core routes of the old network, and
the core routes of Silverlink metro today.
