That'll be the hot air from the spokesman explaining away the next delay
in opening.

By "delay" you mean "not opening it early"?

There's no delay - the opening date is Sunday 23 May. There haven't
been any spokespeople explaining away any delay in opening because
there hasn't been any delay in opening.

Whatever. It was just a light hearted remark.

All that money spent on new track , trains and doing up the stations so
the south end has a through service to stations that were already well
served and the north end goes to places no one will ever want to visit.
Except it doesn't go to finsbury park , the one destination that might have
been useful.

I think you'll be surprised at how popular Dalston is becoming -
theatre, jazz club, famous market etc - and Highbury at the upper end of
Upper Street and by more clubs, the Arsenal etc is hardly not already
popular.

About noon today, the line diagrams on carriage 8057 of District train
043 showed an interchange with Overground at Whitechapel - there is
another at Barking. The platform hoardings have gone from Whitechapel
and access is now prevented by red and white striped tape.

Moreover, I am hopeful that in time we may see further development.
Perhaps in time we will have a four track NLL with ELL trains reaching
Camden Road, or even Queens Park. There are no plans yet, but who
knows!
