They saw my tweet on Monday! See

Maybe they can swap them for some rolling stock suitable for journeys
from Reading to Chelmsford. Comfortable seating, sanitary facilities,
catering, that sort of thing. :-)


I can understand your P.O.V. but Corssrail will only run out as far as
Shenfield, replacing the all-stations service from Liv.Street.
Similar situation re. Reading-Paddington.

Reading to Celmsford will probably by quicker & more comfortable
changing to / from Crossrail at Paddington & Stratford.
