Covers the London Liverpool Street to Cambridge/Stansted main line and
London area branches. Quick highlights of proposals:

....
* extension of London Overground services from Stratford to
Northumberland Park (or a shuttle service)


They mention a possible 4 tph Tottenham Hale - Stratford -
(Richmond). Will that possibly make the 2 new NLL platforms that
are about to open somewhat underused?


Can't they be used for through services to the Lea Valley?

No - the new pair, replacing the low level 1 & 2, are terminal platforms
just west of and extending behind platform 12 (that's used by the current
hourly Lea Valley service).

For some unknown reason they aren't level with platform 12 either, and there
is a ramp connection!
