That must eliminate the need to go from bank to bloody shadwell
Maybe, but at the end of the day the ELL still needs doing, and it's still probably the best way to do it, unless you fancy legging it from Aldgate East to Shoreditch.

True, but with the elimination of the W&C starting at bloody shadwell will be a viable option

You can't seriously do the "all lines" challenge while the W&C is closed and "beat" the record time set when it was open. Especially as it will be reopening a few months down the line (excuse the pun!).

I think separate record times for 12 and 11 lines ought to be noted.

You're right.

It's the same as doing the full challenge using T5 instead of Shoreditch to make 275 stations and expecting to claim to beat Geoff and I.

You'd do different stations to us!

Only way to keep things up to date then, would be for you and Geoff to reattempt it once the final line-up of stations is, well, final. Well, for at least a while anyway.

We're not even considering going again until Shoreditch is closed and the ELL is off the system I believe.

There's simply no point.
