The route from Dalston Junction round to Canonbury and then H&I is
shown in lurid green. What the map doesn't show is the route of the
NLL, which will continue (exactly as it does now) east from Canonbury
to Dalston Kingsland station and then on to Hackney Central. Dalston
Kingsland station is a very short distance north of Dalston Junction.

The ELLX will actually be on the tracks of the NLL passenger service between
Dalston and Highbury & Islington, with the NLL shifted to the northern part
of the formation, using the current freight lines, and with the fourth track
reinstated. Between Highbury & Islington and Camden Road there will also be
four tracks, in this case two for the NLL passenger service and effectively
two freight loops.

Half the ELLX trains will terminate at Dalston Junction, with only the other
half going on to Highbury & Islington.
