The most infuriating part for the LTS passengers will be that LTS trains
will run alongside Crossrail trains south of Bow.
Typical.
I was just wondering if it would interchange with the Piccadilly, apart
from at Heathrow. It must cross it at least twice.
I think one of the Kingston options involves tunnelling to Gunnersbury,
taking over District services and compensating by creating a new interchange
at Chiswick Park. Whether this would also interchange with Piccadilly
services isn't clear though.
If you were thinking of serving passengers from the northern (eastern?) part
of the line, no. Which is possibly an oversight, since the Victoria doesn't
interchange either. The alternative is taking NR suburban services to
Moorgate I guess... but that's very awkward.
