    LU to Network Rail track connections.

    Has there ever been a connection from the District line near Lillie Bridge depot to the West London Line?

    I’m sure London Underground have several battery locomotives that could be used in an emergency

    Schoolgirl crosses the tracks at Latimer Road station.

    I'm shaking my head in disbelief, first of all, it shows either how stupid or foolhardy the teen is, that and the fact that there's now a minimal amount of staff at stations, so I'm not at all surprised it doesn't happen more often.

    What next for LU? At full capacity...

    Another idea is to extend the LOROL services from Highbury & Islington through to Finsbury Park or further, obviously the freight line would require doubling and brought upto Passenger standards.

    Metropolitan and District lines to Link with East London Line is one option. Can anyone else think of which other lines would be useful to have direct connection with each other?

    What next for LU? At full capacity...

    Whichever would provide useful cross line journeys, e.g. East London Line to other lines as part of the London Overground network.

    IMHO I would upgrade the stock exchange lines to passenger standard, thus giving more destinations available.

    So, which is better, the normal Oyster Card or the Visitors Oyster Card? Also, I presume both don't expire?

    Visitors Oyster Card

    I am thinking of purchasing a Visitors Oyster Card for use during the Olympics. How economical are they versus normal fares? Are they worth purchasing if I travelled between Zone 5 to Zone 1? Also, can I apply my Disabled Railcard to this version of Oyster Card?

    Justinsteam, regarding the reintroduction of Bakerloo line service to Watford Junction, only any good if the 4th Rail is still in situ North of Harrow & Wealdstone?
