Thats not TfLs fault but you'd have thought if they're really selling this is a hub railway they'd have sorted something out by now. AFIK an interchange with the Northern Line is not doable. The lack of platforms where it passes the Central Line is inexcusable. That one is low hanging fruit. What is the geography where the Overground Crosses the Piccadilly? Would both lines need new platforms? |

There isn't any road access, and N Acton station is on the wrong side of the main road for a walkway on railway land to be sensible. IMHO tim |
