The depot at North Pole will soon become redundant

What a sad waste - any idea what will happen to all that railway
insfrastructue?

And what about the piece of Wormwood Scrubs that was sacrificed for
this monumental (as it now turns out to be) white elephant? What are
the odds on it being returned to scrubland?!

Was any Scrubs land taken for the Eurostar depot? My old Ordnance
Survey 1:50,000 map of 1976 shows some railway land between the GWML
tracks and the Scrubs, and the boundary looks very similar to that on
the current map.
