It's always seemed rather a long run to me. Was it planned that way, or was it a case of plans for an intermediate station being abandoned?

J believe there was supposed to be an intermediate station at Barnsbury,but I'm not sure when this was mooted or abandoned.....

I'd have thought that if the proposal for Barnsbury was serious then the gradients would have been more in favour; pointing to the suggestion being dropped at an early stage in the planning process.
I might have misinterpreted things, but the location for Barnsbury would be roughly where the two tunnels crossover, I think.

Stop Press! www.davros.org/rail/culg/victoria.htmlScroll down till you get to the bit about "Scheme D" It's satisfying to actually FIND the reference you were sure you had remembered correctly!
