That makes sense, given that one of the more well-known ones is at
Goodge Street.

Although it's a little surprising that Camden Town would not have had an
express stop.

AFIK there is no shelter @ Camden Town Station, implying that it was
not excluded as an express stop.

OTH Belsize Park does have a shelter. It is not had to envisage the
Express service calling at Hampstead and Camden Town, missing Belsize
Park and Chalk Farm.

You are correct Basil. Having checked, it is my mistake. So, maybe
they planned to stop trains at Hampstead and then Euston. Camden Town
is a rather surprising omission. The area was well developed by
then.

Interesting report, it contains some wonderful ideas.

A little beyond the nations pocket book at the time. :-)
