Shame they're missing the opportunity to add the sorely-missing
flyover/under to link the DC lines with the St. Albans Abbey branch.
Handing that line over to LO would do wonders for the service, which
would then get more people actually using it.
But it's well outside London.


It's typical uk.railway: if a service is sparsely used, costing the
taxpayer a lot of money per passenger-journey or passenger-km (take your
pick!) the trainspotters' answer is always the same:

Well, yes. Trainspotters want more trains. If they wanted buses or
guided hovercraft, they wouldn't be trainspotters.
