It might be more convenient for passengers if Crossrail were to be
constructed for shorter, double deck, trains. They do seem to be popular
with operators in other countries for commuter services, e.g. Germany,
USA,
Australia.
Shorter trains would mean shorter walks for passengers at stations.
Unless one has double-deck platforms, loading and unloading such
trains will always be a slow operation given the way such trains
have to be laid out.
The French seem to manage!
