Can South Hampstead be categorised as being on the WCML? It would
normally be described as being on the DC lines, which follow the WCML
alignment most of the way to Watford Jn, but is it the WCML?

Likewise, could Hornsey be categorised as being on the ECML? Many
would describe it as being on the Great Northern route, but is it the
ECML?

Hornsey is definitely on the ECML, even if it only has platforms on two
of the tracks. Nothing (except fiscal sanity) stops an Open Access
operator running a Hornsey to Morpeth service, for example.

South Hampstead is harder; the DC lines have a separate Engineering Line
Reference and don't follow the same alignment. I forget if it ever had
platforms on the WCML proper.
