Strange track layout at Moorgate Northern?

When the Bank Extension was opened, the tunnels were flattened out before London Bridge, but for Right Hand running. This was normalised at Moorgate after the Euston extension, and at kennington after the stockwell extension. But as against switch the sides at the middle (RHR) section, that was left as is. I think that in order to understand this I need to know what "flattened out" means. I am afraid I don't know what it means. It cannot mean "oblated" as we know it; it must have a technical sense - and that technical sense is lost on me so your explanation is without meaning. |

At London Bridge I've been in the old CSLR tunnel and it was vertically above the current southbound platform. -- Roland Perry |
