Watford to St Albans tram link could open in 2012

What sort of train could be run - seems to be a waste of a path on the main line if it was a short one, but an unnecessary expense to run a long train on the branch (would the platforms have to be extended)? It'd only make sense as part of a self contained half hourly Watford- Euston shuttle as I believe is the long-term plan. Would have to be either 321 or 350, depending what is used for such a shuttle (it would make sense to use 321s as a self contained service, I reckon). Neil |

It was put to the TOC and was ruled out. |
