Default Crossrail fares announced - and a massive extension!

Possibly, I only see the signage that says "We're brightening up our
welcome" as I drive past in the coach. I've not bothered checking their
plans, as they won't affect me much, but I can't see a reason to run
pods there, and they would only need one tunnel for them, anyway, as the
width of the existing pods to T5 would permit two way working in a
single tunnel.


If they're self driving pods like those being trialled in MK they run
on the pavement with pedestrians at low speed.


They'd be like the T5 ones (in effect a small-scale guided busway).
