Not mentioned in the story is that these services will be free for Freedom
Pass and 60+ Oyster card holders.


Paddington to Hayes & Harlington is already free at any time.
Which means that the only change is that the Hayes & Harlington
to West Drayton section will be available at any time rather
than restricted to after 09:30 weekdays.

Or are you suggesting that the passes will be usable beyond the
current boundary?


Yes, all the way to Reading, at any time.
