Is the underused line - the Dudding Hill Junction Line to Acton - Does
this see much traffic these days?
Yes it is, and it sees a few freight trains a day I think.
Worth looking at the accompanying PDF at the bottom of this page:

As rail fantasy, It's up there with the finest work of uk.t.l. It even
manages to include a North Acton triangle interchange station. I
especially like the half mile gap between Brent Cross shopping centre
and the Dudding Hill branch (including the crossing of the Midland
Mainline), where they can't even see a possible route. Also, top marks
for the pasted in Windows Live Local maps and satellite pictures.
They haven't included even the beginnings of a cost-benefit analysis,
which says a lot about how seriously it wishes to be taken. It's just
hot air.
