The original plan was to extend the New Lines from South Hampstead in
deep-level tube to a terminus below Euston.
Was the plan not for a terminal loop, presumably with a few
platforms?
In 1911, before the New Lines
opened, this plan had been abandoned in favour of linking with the Bakerloo.
In addition more trains were to be sent to Broad Street. In effect
the services took people to several places, rather than just Euston.
Much the same was true at Kings Cross, where trains were sent to
Broad Street and Moorgate (via the Widened Lines) rather than all
going to Kings Cross. Some even went to Ludgate Hill and further
south, though this ceased during the 1914-18 war IIRC.
