Same from me, it's a badge of honour getting that one in! Less so than having Pilning or even Polesworth in the book mind

First of all, sorry everyone for the delay in posting these, I still haven't got everything transferred from my phone's memo files to my notebook, let alone the moves book! Nevertheless, it's now something to do on a boring commute:

28/08/2016

LU Central line:

Buckhurst Hill
Loughton

LU Jubilee line:

Canons Park
Dollis Hill
Kilburn (last LU Jubilee line shack to score!)
Kingsbury
Neasden
Queensbury

LU Northern line:

Belsize Park
Brent Cross
Chalk Farm
East Finchley
Golders Green
Hendon Central (last LU Northern line shack to score!)
Highgate
Totteridge & Whetstone
Tufnell Park
West Finchley
Woodside Park

Croydon Tramlink:

Addington Village
Addiscombe
Avenue Road
Beddington Lane
Belgrave Walk
Blackhorse Lane
Centrale
Church Street
Coombe Lane
Dundonald Road (this was my last Croydon Tramlink shack to score!)
Fieldway
Gravel Hill
King Henry's Drive
Lloyd Park
Mitcham
Phipps Bridge
Sandilands
Therapia Lane
Waddon Marsh
Wandle Park
Woodside

Meanwhile, away from light rail:

Haydons Road
Tooting
Penge East
West Dulwich (last SET shacks within Zones 1-9 to score!)

If you thought that was good going, you'll definitely want to check out what I managed the following day. Thanks must go to Kite159 for his company on the following lot!

29/08/2016

LU Central line:

Debden
Hanger Lane
Perivale
Ruislip Gardens
Theydon Bois (last LU Central line shack to score!)
West Acton

LU Metropolitan line:

Eastcote
Ickenham
Ruislip (last LU Metropolitan line shack to score!)
Ruislip Manor

LU Piccadilly line:

Alperton
North Ealing
Park Royal
South Harrow (last LU Piccadilly line shack to score!)
Sudbury Town

Those who've been paying attention (or those who've already read the trip report!) will have noticed one thing in particular. Lots of LU line clearances for shacks, and yes, that means that, FINALLY, LU is cleared for shacks! Until the Northern line extension is complete that is, but I have quite a while to wait for that!
