Default Heathrow T4 to close

"Geoff Marshall" wrote in message ...
Well I just had a 'lightbulb' moment, and though I'd ring LU to find out.
Rang up their specific customer number Piccadilly Line .. asked when T4 was
going to close.

The chap politely told me that it had to close for construction work that
was abot to take place on the T5 station.

"I know that! but WHEN is T4 going to close?"

"Ah.." he says .. "I'll go and find out", put me on hold for 17 minutes and
then the phone went dead.

Ah well...


Don't you get compensation for that, you do if your tube train doesn't
come in 15 minutes

Are they still persuing with the idea that half the trains will go to
T5 and half will go as usual? I know there's a valid reason for this
(different T5 location than planned so now they can't build a feasible
loop I believe), however there's gonna be a load of lost passengers
along the branch when the time comes.
