Bye North London Line

How about moving Chiswick Park to where the North London Line crosses the Piccadilly and District platforms, and biulding platforms for all three of them? I suppose it'd be quite expensive, but that way a single line could be kept, and interchange between the three lines could be provided quite easily. there's quite a bit of space on the sout-western side of the tracks for a station building according to Google Earth. I haven't lloked at GE but I suspect the land you're referring to is the old Chiswick Works. Oh, and close Gunnersbury? It's this location, if you think you can recognise it. I don't know the actual area, so I'm not really sure if this is a suitable location. It just seems theoretically possible. I wouldn't close Gunnersbury, because the situation stays pretty much the same as it is now. The distance between Chiswick Park and Gunnersbury now is the same as it would be in the new situation. And they serve different branches of the District line, so I guess they both have their use. http://www.google.co.uk/maps?ie=UTF8...&t=h&z=18&om=1 It is the old Chiswick works, now one of the nicer business parks in London. The NLL is curvy in this area, possibly ruling out new platforms. |
