Description

Nel primo dopoguerra, l'Underground Electric Railways Company of London riprese una serie di tratte in fase di progettazione prima del conflitto . I finanziamenti vennero erogati da un atto del governo approvato nel 1921, il Trade Facilities Act: quest'ultimo, per ridurre la disoccupazione, offriva alla HM Treasury la possibilità di sottoscrivere il valore dei prestiti erogati da aziende per lavori pubblici.
Uno dei progetti proposti era dedicato alla creazione di una linea ferroviaria in superficie, la Wimbledon and Sutton Railway , per collegare i quartieri di Wimbledon e Sutton. La UERL quindi, volendo sfruttare al massimo la copertura finanziaria garantita dal governo, nel novembre 1922 presentò i costi relativi alla W&SR, insieme a un progetto di prolungamento della City and South London Railway a sud di Clapham Common via Balham, Tooting e Merton. Questi progetti prevedevano la costruzione di due stazioni, una detta «North Morden» sulla C&SLR e e l'altra sulla W&SR, detta «South Morden» e la realizzazione di un deposito per la manutenzione dei rotabili di ambo le linee.
