I suppose if the Central Railway ever gets built it would not be completely
impossible to construct a few spurs and beg some paths between the freights.

I was referring to the Airtrack proposal showing the link to the
Wokingham-Redhill line. I'll see if there is a link to it. I saw the
article in a newspaper about a month ago.
The proposal was a short spur from the Staines line allowing trains to
travel through Woking and Guildford with infill electrification
allowing access to Gatwick. Timings wouldn't be fast in modern terms,
but would be faster than the M25/M23 alternative.
