If/when TfL take over the suburban routes on WA, what sort of service patterns do you think would be provided if the NLL links up to the tracks where platform 11/12 are currently? The platforms were designed with this in mind by the looks of things.

I wondered that! I though Liverpool St at first, but then looking at the Carto Metro map I see that platforms 11 and 12 at Stratford are adjacent to the Overgound platforms 1 and 2.
I'm not sure where exactly the West Anglia Inner route covers. I hadn't heard of the NLL proposals, but if they were to extend some NLL trains, it's easy enough to get to platforms 11/12 via the Channelsea Curve and then join the West Anglia at Coppermill Junction south of Tottenham Hale.

Sorry, was half asleep when I made that post! I was talking about Stratford.
We were talking about it the other day at work, and were wondering if Richmond to Broxbourne all stations was a little on the long side and any late running would be a nightmare further on in the route.
If TfL do take over, we can't really see what the advantage is if they don't do something like that, as the West is run far more professionally than the Great Eastern. All the talk of TfL putting in a third track so there will be more capacity is rubbish, because Network Rail are doing that anyway, whoever is running the trains!
