2017, d remarked:
Its a shame that what is in effect a national asset has gone to waste. Given
the traffic situation in London there must be some business case for it.
The sorting offices have long been dispersed away from Central London
and well away from the PO railway.
Yes, it clearly had no remaining use for the Royal Mail.
Cargo also seems unlikely. At best, it could be used for data or power
cables.
Again, possibly too remote from the supply end for power cables.
For comms, maybe only usable if the two ends are conveniently close to
the existing stations but fibre-optic cables only need a reserved
space on the cable bearers rather than the entire tunnel as would
necessarily be the case with HV cables. BT already has a more
extensive tunnel system.
