Whilst trawling through u.t.l. looking for a post about signalbox codes for BAET I came across the following list of two-letter codes for the JLE:
TF Green Park
TG Charing Cross
TH Waterloo
TJ London Bridge
TK Canada Water
TL Canary Wharf
TM North Greenwich
TN Canning Town
TP Southwark
TR Bermondsey
TU West Ham
TW Stratford
TY Stratford Market Depot
Now, that looks thoroughly wrong (and out of order to boot!). Did all the stations on the JLE really get assigned consecutive two-letter codes, and if so, did they really get assigned in the above order?

The codes I have in my 'line knowledge book' from a few years ago are as follows:
Green Park - TF
(Charing Cross = TG)
Waterloo = TH
Southwark = TP
London Bridge = TJ
Canada Water = TK
Canary Wharf = TL
North Greenwich = TM
Canning Town = TN
West Ham = TU
Stratford = TW*
SMD = TY
* TU/TW border is adjacent to the staff halt.
So, your list is correct! I'm not sure why Southwark should be allocated a TP code! As you say, it looks completely out of place while the rest are consecutive!

May be it was simply an afterthought? Like so much of the JLE ;D |

(and I quote), "Not to mince words, it's rubbish!" _Why_ was TN even used in the first place anyway? AFAICT the code is only used for the signals on either side of the floodgates; shouldn't the signals be called FJX? |
