This from the TfL site....

Current Overground network status
A good service is operating on all London Overground lines.

Other London rail operators
ONE RAILWAY: Due to a late finish to engineering works One services are
not serving Liverpool Street station.

To me this seems like a contradiction. The problem is that the Liverpool
Street line is a London overground line, but it isn't a London Overground
line. TfL should not have used "London Overground" to mean a small subset
of what the words have meant for the last hundred years.


You're definitely not the first to have come to that conclusion - and don't
forget all over South London stations still have the remains of the previous
'overground network' signage which is now meaningless.
