Anyone heard this?


How come Her Maj opened the station TWO YEARS AGO


Did she? ITYF it was completed only last year.

and it's been empty and unused ever since?


Hardly surprising - it couldn't have been used before November this year
when the trains actually start running?

Is it true Ashford complained so much that Stratford's opening has
been put back to 2010 at least?


No - It's because Stratford Station is in the middle of building site until
at least 2010. Unless anyone knows different, the Stratford City
development hasn't commenced yet?

What's so wrong with building the infrastructure first anyway? People would
soon complain if it was the other way round, which is usualy the case in
this country..

Thanks Paul.

I understood originally it was planned that Stratford International
opened this year....
