Have a 2 part historical query.
1) Even though Waterloo railway station in 1848 was opened some 16 years before Charing Cross railway station in 1864, were there any proposals for a curve to link the two stations at some point thereby allowing Charing Cross to travel both southeast via Waterloo East and southwest via Waterloo?
2) Relating to the above it is mentioned Waterloo railway station was never originally planned to be a terminus, but rather was to continue towards the City of London. Is it known approximately whereabouts the original route was to terminate at?
