You forgot to mention that the North London Line has no station where it
crosses the proposed West London Tram route, and the tram won't even have
a stop at the nearest point to Acton Central station.


Hardly an issue as WLT has been all but cancelled, in the run up to the
Crossrail announcement...


There is a reasonable, if not brilliant (2/3 mile walk) interchange
between Acton Central and Acton Main Line. So what, I hear you say, but
of course in a few years that becomes Overground/Crossrail and should be
rather important. A station on the NLL just south of the A40 bridge
might be possible, given that Crossrail is mostly useless to us south
west London types as none of the stations are particularly easy to reach.

Of course, you could always move the stone terminal and have a Park and
Ride there, or something.
