With the expansion of this forum to cover other TfL railways, would people like the quiz to be similarly widened in scope?
For practical reasons, I suggest that if the answer is yes, the quiz subjects to be limited to the Underground, DLR and Overground lines shown on the current (at the time) tube map.
Photos of the East London Line taken while it is still such will continue to be included regardless of whether London Overground is included in future or not.
The absolute earliest that this would take effect would be the November quiz.

Agree. (I'll be +6) My knowledge of overground isn't great, but as I have as much fun posting the quizes as I did when I didn't know the answers, then this will be as much of a challenge. By the way, I was chomping at the bit when that Arsenal Tube picture went up the other day.... It's not often I know them, and I don't actually look at the answers until I have to post them, but I was so seriously tempted to post the answer myself!! It's all good fun, lets keep it going, as long as it doesn't go too far off the beaten track, surely there is no harm..... Besides which, if people don't want to take part, they don't need to look.......  |

Ok, I'll declare that as unanimous then! From November's quiz onwards then all of the following are on topic for the quiz - All Underground lines, trains and stations
- The DLR lines, trains and stations
- The future London Overground (i.e. North London Line (including Stratford-North Woolwich), East London Line and GOBLIN) lines and stations
- London Overground-branded trains
- Disused parts of the Underground (Charing Cross Jubilee, Aldwych, Epping-Ongar, Moorgate platforms 9 and 10, etc)
- London's Transport Museum items (in the depot, at Covent Garden or on the system)
- Former LU trains on the Isle of Wight
- The Waterloo and City Line (including stations and trains) prior to LU operation.
- Historic photos of Underground services that no longer exist, e.g. a Metropolitan Line train at Aylesbury or a District Line train at Windsor, or photos of these stations when LU operated there, are acceptable but modern photos of these locations are not.
"LU" and "Underground" include predecessors like the Metropolitan Railway and City and South London Railway. Any questions? |

Presumably though LUL trains or locos or carriages dont have to be on TfL metals to be included? For example what about the battery locos trips to Quainton Road, and the testing of the 'S' stock at Old Dalby when it happens?

I hadn't thought about that to be honest, but as it really isn't much different to the IOW I can't see a problem with it.
Any photos of these wont appear before December at the earliest, so anyone has time to object/commnet if they wish.
