Nonsense. The cost of building the Crossrail tunnels to accept double
deck trains would be considerably higher.
Really, whys that then? Would the actual boring part of the TBM cost
substantially more if its diameter was increased by a metre? Would the extra
concrete cost raise the project costs much higher? Or are you just BSing
because you always want to appear to know best?
But this is britain, planning for unforseen future needs is
frowned upon as we all know.
But this is Boltar, who is an ignorant ****wit as we all know.
