It doesn't - TfL's phasing ties the two together, but Network Rail
recommend the Queen's Park service go ahead in isolation from the
Bakerloo Line changes. Also, the Goblin-Clapham service is assumed to
be diesel in the proposals.

Your suggestion that all "they" care about is Camden Road - Stratford
doesn't fit well with the efforts they are making to create an orbital
rail service.


It's not my suggestion:
"The initial target will be the delivery of 8 trains per hour into
Stratford from the west, firstly because it is on the section to the
east of Camden Road that the greatest levels of overcrowding occur"
http://www.tfl.gov.uk/businessandpar...ions/2860.aspx

The suggested first phase service pattern may have 8 tph Camden -
Willesden, but the final phase doesn't, because it's not important in
the great scheme of things.
