The completion of tracks between Surrey Quays and Clapham Junction has created a new outer london orbital rail route, which opened on Sunday 9 December.
This has been referred to as the 'M25 of rail' and opens up new connections for many - allowing, for example, a journey from Dalston junction to Clapham junction in just 3 minutes.
What's next for rail travel in London? What would you like to see?

I'd like to see the Oyster Card log for any passenger who touched in at Dalston Junction then touched out at Clapham Junction three minutes later. Let's add, say, two minutes' waiting time and a minutes' walking time between the train and the Oyster Card readers. That's six minutes end-to-end. Do you really think that's possible?

I'd like to see an improvement in west London
The existing services are slow and unreliable coming into west London
Crossrail is a long way away, can we improve current services?
Perhaps London Overground could take over the existing FGW service
