It's fun, it's tongue in cheek, it's obviously not meant to be in any way
serious, but it will probably tickle the fancy of some here:

He's suggesting a new rail linking the cultural centres of South London
(no, I hadn't heard of the Soseki Museum either) :-)

Anyway, aparently he presented his idea at the Chelsea Theatre last May
http://www.chelseatheatre.org.uk/culturail.htm so too late for that one,
but this Wednesday he's starting off an evening at SPACE, one night only

18th_2008/

Thought it may be of interest to some here.

A splendid scheme! It would be a gentler world in which railway lines were
built to serve museums and galleries, not factories and offices.

But, as with all schemes, NEEDS MORE INTERCHANGE. He goes right under
Clapham Junction and doesn't propose a stop!

Also, i'm surprised the route goes from Soseki to Home via Stockwell
rather than Brixton Art Gallery. Perhaps future plans should include a
branch from the main line, serving that and also 198, at Herne Hill?

Ah, excellent - that means the line has a regeneration case! :)
