Fictional: Acrossrail
Inspired by Crossrail cutting straight through the city.
The need for orbital rail around London, preferably further out than the current Overground.
Imperatively an effective orbital rail that extends out to the edges of London, if not just outside London.
Inspired by Southern's West London Line, which is unfortunately hourly, and paths on the line already in use so can't be upgraded in frequency as of 2023.
Inspired by a potential diversion of some Southeastern trains [from Dartford?] to Clapham Junction.
Fun fact: then Mayor Boris Johnson was close to having the South West Trains metro services under London Overground but was rejected by Epsom's MP - Chris Grayling - the then Transport Secretary.
