As for Wapping, the expense of extending the platforms could

front 4 cars only").


If common sense prevails, perhaps there will be an electronic door
control system that allows a driver to flip switches to selectively
isolate doors on individual units. This would allow _any_ four cars of
a train to be used at Wapping.

How much would it actually cost to extend the platforms by four cars
and additionally widen them if the H&S mafia decree it?
