I hadn't thought of that aspect. What about the Met 'main line'? Is
that under LUL control as far as Amersham? It's a long time since my
Met commuting days...


LUL owned, maintained to LU standards by the infraco Metronet (which
in its previous privately owned incarnation collapsed into
administration, but it has since been purchased by TfL). It becomes
Network Rail's responsibility at some point to the west of Amersham.


The boundary point is known as Mantle's Wood. *An odd bit of railway
given it's LU property but never used by LU passenger trains - only
Chiltern.


Well, there'll be the East London Line in that category soon!
