Does The Paddington Bakerloo Line Link Make The Bakerloo Line A NW-SE Cross-Branch Of The Elizabeth Line?

The Elizabeth Line has these major North-South cross-branches.

• Jubilee Line at Bond Street station.
• Charing Cross Branch of the Northern Line at Tottenham Court Road station.
• Thameslink at Farringdon station.
• Bank Branch of the Northern Line at Moorgate station.
• East London Line of the Overground at Whitechapel station.

With the opening of the Paddington Bakerloo Line Link, another North-South cross-branch of the Elizabeth Line has been added.

It could be argued that London has a new NW-SE high frequency link between Harrow & Wealdstone and Abbey Wood stations.

• Bakerloo Line – Harrow & Wealdstone and Paddington
• Paddington Bakerloo Line Link – 165 metre level step-free walk
• Elizabeth Line – Paddington and Abbey Wood via Whitechapel and Canary Wharf

The journey would appear to take 73 minutes from the National Rail journey planner, which allows fifteen minutes for the change at Paddington.
