Default ELL- London Fields/Cambridge Heath?

Hi,

In checking back some old postings in relation
various things related to the Beck Line/KTP
scenario, I came across a post which suggsted
that at one time there had been a plan to link
the East London Line to the Great Eastern.

Further Details would be appreciated.

From CULG:

At Spitalfields a branch turned off into extensive sidings underneath
the corresponding GER coal depot (and with a vertical hoist linking
them); there were plans to tunnel to meet the GER line at Cambridge
Heath, but these never came to fruition and the tunnel dead-ended only
350m from the junction.
