Default Crossrail link to Reading hangs in the balance

A decision on whether to extend the £16billion Crossrail scheme to Reading
will be made in the New Year, it emerged today.


If it is, then presumably the current semifast services from Reading
will be relegated to all-stops, and there won't be much choice for
passangers from the Slough-Reading corridor


Is that what another poster referred to in a different thread as "St
Alban-isation"? (I took this to be a reference to BedPan electrification
meaning mainline services no longer stopped there).
