No immediately obvious how to include it. But the High Speed Two consultation also needs adding, announced at the beginning of this wwek. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 94.194.151.102 ( talk) 19:54, 2 March 2011 (UTC)
For some reason, the page says that the "Following" London Overground station (on all services) is Whitechapel (as well as being the "Preceding" station on the Watford DC line), but the code says Willesden Junction.
Willesden Junction is correct.
Does anyone know why this is showing up?
D-Notice ( talk) 11:18, 5 March 2011 (UTC)
Willesden Junction towards Richmond
North London Line
Acton Central towards Stratford
These two are the wrong way round but I can't find the section in the source. Also, the Line is the West London Line isn't it? Once this has been fixed the two Towards Statford boxes can be merged and the line (As West London Line) should also be able to be.
Also, how likely is it that the Heathrow Express will stop there as it is none stop to Heathrow. And, would Mainline trains stop here and then go any further non-stop than Ealing Browdway (It currently says Slough or Maidenhead).

While alternatives - like moving the HS2 line nearer to Heathrow Airport, having a connection to High Speed 1, and abandoning the HS2 terminus at Euston - are accurate historical proposals, they need to be removed from the main narrative.
Surely this phrase can be replaced by a link to the relevant act? -- John Maynard Friedman ( talk) 17:27, 2 April 2017 (UTC)
Will there be a tube station at Old Oak Common? I have found it being mentioned on the article but it is unsourced. The section states Old Oak Common will be on the Central line between North Acton and East Acton and on the Bakerloo line between Willesden Junction and Kensal Green. After lots of searching online I have found no mention of a tube station at Old Oak. Most of the discussion is about the two separate London Overground Stations at Hythe Lane and Old Oak Common Lane as well as HS2. It seems logical for the area to be served by the tube, however the Wikipedia article is the only place I have found a mention of it. 2.24.174.76 ( talk) 07:47, 9 July 2017 (UTC)
This section is very detailed but other than the London Overground there's no sources given. Are some based wholly on authors' speculation? Saying they are subject to change is no proper defense for speculation WP:NOR Without sources and dates it's difficult to verify. Is is really on Heathrow express route? -- FDent ( talk) 16:52, 7 January 2018 (UTC)
I think it'd be good to add some idea of what zone the new station will be in. The article says it is near Willesden Junction which is zone 2/3. Lena Key ( talk) 10:10, 27 January 2023 (UTC)
