Although, I am not convinced that a Central London (Well Camden)

Not having a terminus in Central London seems to be madness, as you'd
lose a lot of time getting to/from the terminus by creakingly slow
LUL/LOROL.

Euston would seem to be a good idea, given that it (unlike the other
termini) has plenty of spare platform capacity.

(On the subject of Euston, has anyone noticed that VT are now
operating from consistent platforms rather than deliberately
randomising it as they used to? Regulars are starting to wise up...)
