Just one answer each, please. |
3)ii) close call between Notting Hill Gate and Earl' Court but it's a bit early to get the map out so i'll take a chance and go for NHG. |
Furthest south on the network is Morden. |
1) IV) Would that be Upminster? |
Furthest north on the Circle Line is King's Cross/St Pancras. Question: does this Quiz eventually lead to Mornington Crescent? |
1)ii)Amersham |
3)iv) Aldgate |
As for 2) I'd guess it's likely to be the most easterly station, due to the extensions out for the 2012 Olympics... |
2. Southernmost station to be West Croydon once the East London Line extension is complete. Although it is turning into a "metro-style train service" so does that count? Guess so as must still use tube rolling stock in order to get under the tunnel! |
1(i) - Epping. Maybe Chesham, but Epping looks further north. |
If I remember correctly, the extended East London Line will use normal railway stock - the tunnel under the Thames seems to be large enough to accommodate it. |
2) yes - the furthest south is going to be West Croydon (probably) Just waiting for an answer to 3iii - the furthest south on the Circle line |
3(iii): Sloane Square. Didn't cheat really, just confirmed my guess with Geoff's geo map: http://www.geofftech.co.uk/tube/...aps/ tubegeo.jpg |
2 - surely Heathrow T4 is furthest West, and this will soon be beaten by T5? |
Ooops - forgot about the Met line! |
When the East London Line Extension opens the furthest south Underground station will still be Morden. The East London Line is being converted to a conventional railway and sponsored by TfL Rail. The idea it will still be a LUL Underground line is a common misconception. You are in good company. Croydon Council were until recently proudly announcing "the tube is coming to Croydon". |
Ah well - I suppose at least that means six more stations will become 'abandoned' tube stations, which'll be something else to write about. |
