  • some questions have simple answers. what's the newest station on the London Underground? Why it's Battersea Power Station! Though maybe it's the joint newest as it opened the same day as Nine Elms... And then does the Elizabeth line count? (no.)
    This station was built in tandem with the redevelopment of the iconic eponymous power station, making this the only station to have the word station in the name. Station. Great now it doesn't even look like a real word.

    An extension to Clapham junction? I had no idea. That would genuinely be so convenient

      But they need crossrail 2 to go to Clapham Junction first otherwise the Northern Line would be far too busy

      @@CCA2020 tbh it'd just rejoin with the SWML at Waterloo at be self defeating, as why get on at Clapham when you can stay on the mainline train and get off at Waterloo, where you can still get on the exact same train. the only people who would actually genuinely use it are people who don't want to go on the charring cross branch and don't want to go to Bank or London bridge.

    For those who don’t get why TFL didn’t build the extension to Clapham Junction so far, it’s because they were originally planning to but because most of the funding came from the power station redevelopment, it was their say. The program runners said they didn’t want people living in Battersea to get on a train that was already filled with people coming from one of the buisiest rail stations in the U.K. so TFL had to shorten the plans. As for why the PSDs weren’t implemented immediately either is thhe technology on the trains weren’t made for the modern signalling PSDs use. It’s one of the key differences between the 95 and 96 stock

      All the station footage (bar occasions when I need to pick up something I've missed) is already banked and in a hard drive! All I have to do is write and record the script and edit it together. But I might possibly do a behind the scenes / q&a / livestream thing on this after the series finishes!
