You can also add the Herne Hill siding and Luton Airport

And the concrete trough between Gasworks and Copenhagen tunnels built
as part of the CTRL works to connect the ECML to SPILL.

And clearance for the new stabling sidings at Cambridge (not sure if
that's Thameslink or just somewhere to put the '1300' carriages).


We're waiting for them to relay and electrify those sidings but I don;t
think they are part of the TLP. The extension of platform 1 for 12 cars
strictly isn't part of the programme either but it's complete in practice.


There are a few bits in the Greater Anglia RUS which, although not giving
much away, suggest it is for train lengthening on the WA route to Liverpool
St. Perhaps ready for the 30 new 4 car trains for the route...
