I have now managed to corral content for the Overground‘s new nomenclature., retaining a separate document for each of the six named lines. I have also completed the Victoria Line and have made progress on the Metropolitan Line and the Docklands Light Railway routes (which have also given me a start on the Jubilee Line route).
A new route is now in the planning stage — as hinted by the photograph above, it is to parallel the Superloop bus routes through the mid-outer suburbs. I have tested two mornings’ walking between North Finchley (yes, at that hour of the morning!) and Wanstead, and there is a lot more than mere streets, including hearing a woodpecker drumming in Epping Forest on 5 February. The next section to Ilford and beyond will require a few days of dry weather, rather than the current swamp conditions.
There is a new official TfL walk — the Green Link Walk. I have not yet had a chance to study the route in detail, but it starts from a bus stop on the edge of Epping Forest and ends by crossing Burgess Park to reach Peckham. A start at Snaresbrook station would allow walkers (if not all wheeled users) to experience the section of Epping Forest where I heard that woodpecker, rather than just peering at the Forest from the bus stop. Judging by the hazy route-map, I suspect that there will be no separation of feet from wheels throughout, which will bring lesser joy to both groups..
