Default Longer trains for Waterloo-Reading, Waterloo-Windsor lines

For the up line, will they place the 10 car stopping point beyond the end
of the up platform, and enable doors on the rear 8 cars, or will they
stop the train foul of the crossing and open the front 8?


The driver probably needs to be alongside the platform, so the crossing
would be fouled. But it was like that at Wokingham 25 years ago.
