So, let there be no doubt, (if St. George are to be believed), the

building of that station is Railtrack (or their successor's) reluctance
- which they have expressed right from the beginning - to do anything
that increases use of that line on which, so they say, they have severe
capacity problems.

If only they'd also insisted they pay for the voltage changeover being
moved to Shepherd's Bush, saying it was required to free up capacity
for their new station...
