Wouldn't it be better and possibly profitable to extend all of the
Crossrail Paddington terminators to North Pole, then on a new track to
near Harlesden Station , then on the freight line up to Neasden where
they could take over the entire Chiltern service (both Amersham and High
Wycombe), allowing the line from Neasden to Marylebone including the
Marylebone Station site to be sold off and also allowing the Met to
terminate at Baker Street?


Great idea.

Then you could turn Marylebone into a coach terminal with links to the
A40/M40. I wonder why no-one has ever thought of that before. ;-)
