Sorry about the late start folks, it seems I forgot to create the inline version of today's image before uploading. It's just a single part so you hopefully haven't missed too much (click image for a larger version)

"Levelling up the country should not be about levelling down London” ...Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan. Well, he would say that, wouldn't he? Yes he would say that but this doesn't stop it being absolutely true. It is however a matter of political opinion (and thus not suitable for discussion on this forum) whether the government and/or mayor are levelling down London.

Sorry the delay folks, I typoed the file name and wasn't around when Colin D alerted me to there being a problem. It's just a single part today, and one I don't expect to be too difficult, so hopefully not too many headaches (click for a larger version)

Presumably it would first require (almost) all of the fleet to have the modifications applied, extended testing to determine reliability and safety over the long term (nobody wants a repeat of the Chancery Lane derailment) and, if all that proves satisfactory, a new timetable. I don't know what, if any, union agreements would be required, although I presume they would at least want to be convinced it was safe.

So why did they provide any connection at all? What purpose does it serve? It's almost a secret connection! It provides step-free access to the westbound SSR at Barbican station for relatively little cost, benefiting those who use the station. Is it as useful as a full-connection? No. Is it therefore useless? Also no. It's only secret if you think everything not shown on the tube map is secret, it's signed at the station. Mods: we've got overlapping conversations about specific features at Barbican and Romford, perhaps these could be split to separate threads to avoid confusion and aid future discovery?

It is possible that C is a Northern line platform - I took the photo about 7 years ago and just labelled it "platform". The answer sheet says "probably [other line at station]" based on the frequency with which I use the lines at that station.
