Once the full Bakerloo line extension happens and Euston gets rebuilt, all northbound Bakerloo trains should be cut back to Queen's Park and the Lioness line frequency doubled or more.

It's confusing for those unfamiliar with the network when they get on the Bakerloo line intending to go somewhere like Wembley when the train terminates at Queen's Park instead of Harrow & Wealdstone like the map shows. They don't realise they have to take the next Bakerloo or Overground train and it's a bit unintuitive.

With the full extension to Hayes and there being planned depots in the area, there will be no need for the ones at Stonebridge Park and Harrow & Wealdstone. It's unnecessary for the lines to share the track and having only 1 would allow for more trains per hour. Currently there isn't capacity for an increased number of Overground trains to Euston but after the station is rebuilt there should be.

This would have the benefit of an easier to understand service and increased frequency for those on the line north of Queens Park.

What’s up with this on TfL’s Go App map?

Part of the loop on the central line is “pulsing” but no indication why?

Lift out of order

No lifts at Bermondsey... TFL advice for disabled people is to stay on the train to Canada Water (almost a mile away) and return by street level back to Bermondsey 🫣... of that £500m Sadiq Khan amazing found last week, can you fix the 100s of broken lifts.

Bond Street Elizabeth line

Any idea what this is about? I had a closer look and it looks like a large vinyl sticker with a concrete effect/pattern.

It has been exactly 100 years since 'Moorgate Street' was renamed to 'Moorgate'

I don't know why I posted this. Thought it will be interesting

Northern Line gets upgraded

Northern Line needs a new train because the 1995 stock has noise pollution and the wheels are too loud. We need a new train

Speed limits on the Central line

I mean what IS going on? If the perpetual unreliability of the Central line isn’t enough to disgruntle customers, it’s the bleedin’ speed limits! Most noticeably on my regular commute is the bit between Mile End and Stratford going eastbound. I’ve just timed it and it took 5 minutes and 14 seconds. Madness I tell thee!

Just downloaded the latest tube map from TFL’s website and noticed this. Why the Hainult loop section of the central line is marked in blue?
