West Hampstead is crying out for development into a decent interchange:
NLL,
Jubilee Line, Met, Chiltern, Thameslink. Anyone know what the latest
progress is with this?

Chiltern Railways are planning a new development connecting the three
stations, with Chiltern platforms built at the Met station and
redevelopment of West End Lane.

Can't be soon enough for me in that it should put an an end to one of
those ticketing anomalies. If you buy a Saint Albans to London zone
one return ticket
you cannot catch a train from the West End to West Hampstead and
change trains because Hampstead is in zone 2 but are obliged to travel
to the often perilously overcrowded Kings Cross or risk hypothermia at
Blackfriars. Crazy but it's true - By the way has the great Farringdon
isn't a London terminus anomaly been resolved yet and if not who is
holding up sensible reform.
