My first reaction was "Seems a pity not to connect either proposed
station with any other rail/underground station even if it's only
Battersea Park." but thinking about it what sort of travel opportunities
would that open? Not many I suspect. Going on to Clapham Junction might
be worthwhile but even then I'm not wholly convinced.


It helps everyone who arrives on the Victoria "side" who wants to go to
the city.

Currently they have to change twice (or rattle around on the circle from
Vic)


They'd still have to change twice surely - the drawings that appeared
somewhere recently assumed connections to/from the reversing loop beyond
Kennington station, so they could only have access to the Charing Cross
branch rather than the City branch - therefore forcing a change at
Kennington?
