    New London train line names

    £6 million spent to rename the lines to:

    The Lioness line
    The Mildmay line
    The Windrush line
    The Weaver line
    The Suffragette line
    The Liberty line

    Money well spent.

    I like the fact a line is called "The Lioness".

    The Weaver feels a bit dizzy

      The Windrush line will be referred to as the fart line.

        Oh dear, you're as bad as me. I would have given them all rude names.

          You may be right.

          The Suffragette one will surely become the Suffering Line to refect the "Customer" experience.

              ah its £6m for new woke signs, maybe making sure they have capacity would be a good first step?

                  Naming them is a good idea and is long overdue. Not sure I like all the names but that's a moot point and people will call them whatever they like.
