Jubilee to East Dulwich
 
I had 'Homes under the hammer' on the tv this morning and they were in
East Dulwich. The presenter mentioned it was up and coming and that
there was a strong rumour of the Jubilee line coming to "the village".
Anyone got any clue about this? I know there was the proposed link to
the East London line, but never the Jubilee.

Eh? Its miles away. The Victoria line might be more plausible, but it
ain't gonna happen.

Anyone got any clue about this?


It's known as estate-agent speak. "There's a strong rumour that the
Channel Tunnel link will be coming to Exeter soon" :(

It's funny how these ideas get about. I have a friend who is (or rather,
was) absolutely convinced that Stoke Newington was soon to get a tube
stop.

Sounds like rubbish. The East London Line may go to Peckham Rye in phase
2, and the Bakerloo line has being trying to get to Camberwell for about
seventy years, but no-one's really interested in building anything to
Dulwich!

Indeed, it sounds like the Estate agents are just trying their luck
again, Lordship Lane is now nearly all Estate Agents and Curry Houses.

That's not *completely* insane: Dalston Junction ELLX station will be
pretty much in Stokey, and the service on the ELLX will be much closer
to a Tube-frequency/standard than a NLL-frequency/standard service.

The fact that the ELLX is in fact heading to the borough of Hackney does
make this story much less insane than the Jubiee to Dulwich one, but
"Dalston Junction ELLX station will be pretty much in Stokey"? Hardly!
It's no closer than Finsbury Park is already, and that's a genuine tube
station.

Unless you live in south Stoke Newington, in which case it is a lot
closer. Fair enough.
