Yup, still legal. It was threatened during the Helsinki Conference last year, but they kept it in because of the need for removing anticompetitive habits in the central Asian leagues.
Moorgate.
I believe it was Shelley (or was it Keats?) who said, “Finns again? Begins again!”
Bank
A collective sigh of relief that North Weald is no longer available in this situtation. The alternative is a far more palatable Archway (Fotheringham B’s sententiousness notwithstanding).
In your excitement at avoiding North Weald, you completely overlooked the fact that I can now select Earl’s Court for a double score.
Invocation of Bank without a Yatchet two turns before a double score allows me to play a rare Welsh Mynyddoedd, for which I choose Carnedd Llewelyn. Since the Prince is not in residence, I’m pulling out my Ty Coch. If you hear bagpipes, you have gone beyond Betws Garmon and will suffer the vision of a naked Duchess of Cornwall. Be forewarned.
We’re not fooled, Liberal, although I applaud the attempt to bluff a Trojan Inkman call. Upton Park.
The old Carnedd Ploy, eh? You must think you are Cunning McCunningsford from Cunningshire. But Sydney Rules apply, as you yourself have admitted, and since it’s tomorrow there, that means Goodge Street becomes playable as an Encumbrance, and your postion becomes rather untenable.
I’m going to invoke the Pythagorean Exemption from the 1988 Manchester Conference and jump to Warren Street, bringing us to an exciting endgame.
Not so fast!!! Didn’t Pranton’s Gambit demonstrate that I can release Gunnersbury? 
Pranton, Pranton…ah, there it is. A quick scan of the precis seems to indicate that GorillaMan is indeed correct. That kicks us out of regular play and into Open Tournament Rules, doesn’t it? In which case, according to the manual, the next play is a mandatory Cockfosters, with Descending Tram Exchange enabled and all Britrail transfers wild.
Oh, boy!
Now we’re talking!!! I declare Zone 6 void, and am taking Mile End no trumps.
Is Brill still valid, or did the fistfight that occurred during Wuppertal 1977 make it a permanently invalid action, no matter what rules are in force?
Brill? What zone is that in?!
Chancery Lane
I’ve been told that in the middle game you shouldn’t block yourself in by playing more obscure stations in Zone 1. So where’s an escape route? Ah!
Tottenham Hale !
Brill was closed in 1935, which disqualifies it according to the Aldgate Declaration of the 1964 Thomson Committee’s recommendations. When GorillaMan declared Zone 6 void, he automatically brought the Thomson Committee rules into play. Starting over at Mile End, I’m going to use the Hammersmith Jump to take us to Liverpool Street, blocking Governor Quinn. GorillaMan, you should be ashamed of yourself for forgetting the Aldgate Declaration.
Let’s see: leap year-check, lunar eclipse-check, Welsh language excursus-check. That means I can invoke the widdershins triple, and move to Angel.
Tee-hee, after 25 years in the game I finally get to play it! And because my last move was disallowed, unfairly I feel, and I’m certainly one to hold a grudge, you can all spend the next five moves escaping the abridged Warren Street-Oxford Circus-Tottenham Court Road loop[sup]1[/sup].
Warren Street
[sup]1[/sup]The Lesser Outside Reversing Loop: A Cad’s Play, or Understated Genius? Bonham-Leigh, T. The Proceedings of the International Society of Mornington Crescent 1978 79:10064-10176
Did you miss the connection here, under the Featherstone Principle?
Great Portland Street
Hmm. As a new player entering the game, I will assert my right (in accordance with the West London Papers published by Douglas Wyatt in 1966) to include the North London Line. This right is, I believe, available only on the first move, so I’m going to have to get this right.
Dalston Kingsland
Interesting… that would normally place you in Nidd, but with Britrail transfers being wild, you’re safe. A reverse shunt to Hainault should throw a spanner amongst the pigeons.
