I've updated this line diagram with some new icons. I also removed the second entry for Stockwell to reduce clutter. The station buildings remained on the same site, only the platforms moved slightly - so not really a completeley new station. DrFrench (talk) 19:25, 18 June 2008 (UTC)Reply

Included/Omitted edit

I'm not sure why the proposed Morden–Sutton section has been included, while the almost-completed Moorgate–Finsbury Park–Alexander Palace project was left out… Can anyone suggest a reason? Useddenim (talk) 22:10, 25 February 2011 (UTC)Reply

None of the volunteers here realised it was missing. Is it part of the Northern Heights idea? Britmax (talk) 22:25, 25 February 2011 (UTC)Reply
Yes it was, but as there would have been access from Moorgate via Highgate to Barnet and Mill Hill, it can also be considered as part of the Northern Line proper. Useddenim (talk) 01:34, 26 February 2011 (UTC)Reply
It'll take some doing, but that's the challenge. I'll copy the template to my page and see where I an wedge it in. Britmax (talk) 12:33, 27 February 2011 (UTC)Reply

Also omitted is the fact that the line is right hand running between just south of London Bridge to just North of Bank. Unfortunately, I don't know which line passes over which at the two location, or indeed how to edit that rather complicated diagram. Rather than cock it up, I prefer to leave it to someone with experience. 109.156.49.202 (talk) 17:39, 6 November 2011 (UTC)Reply

"Just south of London Bridge to just North of Bank", you say? Having put a similar section into the Central line at White City so I'll have a go when I've tried to find out which way the tunnels run. Britmax (talk) 19:08, 6 November 2011 (UTC)Reply
Best source for this sort of info is

where we find that the northbound City branch crosses over the southbound twice, just south of Borough and just south of Moorgate. There's another stretch of r/h running through Kentish Town. But if we're going to go into that level of detail, what about the rabbit warren between Euston and Camden Town, also the loop at Kennington, as well as the various crossovers and reversing siding (e.g. Tooting Broadway, Stockwell, Charing Cross, Colindale, etc.) which is IMHO way too much. This is a route diagram, not a track layout. --Redrose64 (talk) 20:16, 6 November 2011 (UTC)Reply
