Default Crossrail NOT making connections

The plan is to run the current Hammersmith-Whitechapel/Backing service
plus the Hammersmith-Circle service, which doubles the number of
trains on the Hammersmith-Paddington stretch.

Are Crossrail trains going to support third rail anyway for the Abbey Wood
bit? If so, you wouldn't even need to OHLEfy Hammersmith.


The bit to Abbey Wood is entirely segregated and thus uses OHLE.
