Not in operating terms.

A frequent tube service continuing to, and replacing, Vauxhall
station, and both Battersea stations (at a new central location
convenient for the new US embassy), would be useful and free up the SW
mainline approach to Waterloo.


Maybe.

It could continue to Wimbledon by surfacing before Clapham junction and
using the outside pair to reach Putney, and then on to Wimbledon by
sharing the District tracks.


Gibber! What would that do to Windsor lines capacity?
