There are updates at https://tfl.gov.uk/travel-informatio...line-extension A year to fit two stations out and another year to test and commission the extension! You'd think an underground extension was mature technology by now. Has there been any discussion of the names of the two lines into which the Northern Line will be split? I think the Greathead line would be a good name for the Morden - Bank - Barnet / Mill Hill East line. |

Surely it'll all still be called the Northern Line until such time as the lines no longer join and cross at Camden? |

Part of the Bakerloo became the jubilee line but the District line is still a huge lump with all its various branches. And to a lesser extent the Met. -- Spud |

There might have been an argument for giving the Wimbleware service a different name, and perhaps include the Olympic service in it, but the rest of the District can't be thought of as anything but one line. The Met as it is today is very much a single line. Of course, the Met once included the H&C. |
