Look at the map on the webpage given.

Or if your newsreader wraps lines, try

Wandsworth Road and Clapham High Street are shown
as National Rail interchange stations, which sorta implies
that the South London Line services will continue (I don't
know of any other NR services which use those stations)


I wouldn't trust that. Those symbols are just telling people that they will
be using the existing NR stations of those name. When they were proposing to
extend the line to Willesden Junction, the map showed a BR symbol at
Primrose Hill!

That's why my vehicle's the Piccadilly Line -
It's the size of a county and it comes every two and a half minutes

All the same, the convenience of a direct rail link from Clapham High
Street to Clapham Junction would not offset the *inconvenience* of not
having one from there to Victoria, so I hope there still will be SLL
services!
