His link was posted yesterday by TheSignalEngineer on rmweb, so I can't take any credit for it. It relates to a Ministry of Justice document seeking to repeal various Acts of Parliament for lines authorised but never constructed. www.justice.gov.uk/lawcommission/docs/slr_railways_(abortive_projects).pdf Plenty of material in the London area for us all to speculate about! |

The Harrow, Edgware and London Railway would have been really quite useful. I'd musing joining the GNR Edgware station to the LNWR's Belmont station to access Harrow & Wealdstone...but Harrow on the Hill would have made for a much better orbital route.

...oh, and the poor Uxbridge & Rickmansworth Railway. That'd also have been very useful.
