Promoted to GA on 17 September; hook meets format guidelines and has sources (NOTE that I had to insert the missing "was" near the end); QPQ checks out; image looks good, is used in the article, and is free. Gronk Oz (talk) 11:13, 27 September 2015 (UTC)

As amended the original proposed hook is wrong. The underground platforms were used and are in use, just not by nine-car trains. The separate platforms on the surface are the ones that were never used by London Underground trains. DavidCane (talk) 12:34, 27 September 2015 (UTC)
Thanks for clarifying that. I put the original hook back how it was, but I don't find the wording clear. I think ALT1 makes the situation much clearer. Gronk Oz (talk) 14:39, 27 September 2015 (UTC)
