There have been plenty of comments on these newsgroups in the past
that getting Crossrail to Reading might not be all that it's cracked
up to be in certain quarters, what with a Crossrail train from Reading
into central London being slower that a fast non-stop service to
Paddington (where interchange with Crossrail would of course be
available).

Surely Crossrail to Reading is more about commuting between Reading to/from
Maidenhead/Slough/Etc, than it is about Reading to London journeys
