Default Heathrow Connect service

I guess there will probably be special discount arrangements for airport
workers who are one of the main target markets for this service.


IOW, "stuff the passengers" - the air passengers, that is.


The workers are rail passengers too, and iirc outnumber the passengers.
Surely it's better to get them regularly using the train, than prising
the air passengers from their cars one at a time - especially as there
will be very few air passengers, compared to airport workers, starting
their journeys close to the places the Connect service will be calling.
