Issues covered included HLOS2, East London Line Ph 2 or should I say
"New South London Line", Overground performance, LUL performance,
various projects including a confirmed delay to the DLR Stratford
International project to "Autumn 2010".

The "New Souh London Line" moniker doesn't seem anything more than a
Boris-esque presentational wheeze to deflate concerns about the
forthcoming death of the Victoria-London Bridge South London Line
service - this is reinforced by the fact that TfL/ LO do not refer to
any of the London Overground routes by names such as "North London
Line" "East London Line" etc in passenger facing communication -
instead, the ultimate destinations of each service are referred to
instead, e.g. "Richmond - Stratford", "Dalston Jn - West Croydon/
Crystal Palace" - according to a somewhat trenchant poster on the
District Dave forum, this nomenclature was chosen as the result of
passenger surveys and consultations done by TfL.

Ah the trenchant Mr T Dunning. Yes his posts can be a bit to the point
can't they? I'm amazed he hasn't had someone give him a word in his
"shell like" about what he posts.


Must be a very important chap, I gather he put Boris right when he went 'off
message' about Class 378 seating...

Especially as consultation is apparently OK for important things like
naming lines, but not for the silly things like passengers having the
chance of a seat.

Says the man who seemingly has absolutely no idea how much most NLL
and WLL users prefer the new trains because they can actually get on
them without feeling like they're jammed in like cattle. No Andy,
you're not going to succeed in attaching that misguided snipe on to my
comments at all!
