ELL2 link to Clapham Junction completed

The Mayor of London has today hammered a golden spike in to the Transmetropolitan Railroad - the East London Line extension from Surrey Quays to Clapham Junction.

The Mayor called the Overground one of the UK's most popular and reliable railways and "tightened a clip fixing the last rail in place on a 1.3km section of new railway linking London Overground to existing track leading to Clapham Junction." 

There is no confirmed opening date for the new service, but the latest deadline they've set themselves is the end of 2012.
