I can't recall if anyone has mentioned this, but station construction is
well underway.

Don't you mean Imperial Wharf, or has the name been changed? (It seems
to have disappeared altogether from the current TfL maps.)

Correction: It's disappeared from any of the maps under the "Rail" tab
on the maps page on the TfL site, but it's still on the Tube map as
Imperial Wharf ("opening late 2009").

I haven't heard of any name change.

Good that it's on its way - when did Imperial Wharf first start
appearing in the published timetables?

It used to be "Chelsea Harbour". It became "Imperial Wharf" a few
years ago.

** Pretends to be Clive Feather **

04-06-1972

** Realises he isn't **

Several years before it had anything resembling a funding agreement,
is the best answer I can give.

That would be 1972-06-04 ;-)

Seriously, I think it appeared on the London Connections map in early
2005, along with Shepherds Bush (WLL). Not sure about the printed
timetable though.

Best regards

It's in the winter 2004 - 2005 printed timetable.

Not sure about the one before, but not in the previous winter.

Oh, right. What a stupid name for a station. Imagine when engineering work
leads to trains terminating there, someone in Brighton or Milton Keynes
seeing "Imperial Wharf" on the front of a train. If the developers wanted
the station to have the same name as their development, they should have
called their development Chelsea Harbour.

They have.

Imperial Wharf is the name of the development taking place along
Townmead Road directly opposite Imperial Road which has been developed
as a wider, smoother road (complete with bus lane just right for taxis
to use) than Lots Road which does not have 'public' access right through
to Townmead Road as there is a barrier at the west entrance to Chelsea
Harbour.

The whole Imperial Wharf development when completed is much larger than
Chelsea Harbour

Indeed - see http://www.imperialwharf.com.

The C3 bus (Earl's Court - Clapham Jn) is allowed to go that way
though! Do they not let you cabbies through?
