Default London Crossrail likely to work any better than Thameslink?

remarked:
given that Crossrail will run thru three different signalling systems,
integrate into the timetables of two franchises, and mix with local
and freight traffic, one can see it will present an operating
challenge.

Three franchises if you count HEx.

True, though the only tracks they'll share are in Heathrow itself, as
Crossrail will use the GW relief lines and HEx is on the mains.


My impression was that they wouldn't be doing much (if any) track
sharing with Greater Anglia between Stratford and Shenfield.


There will still be some in the peaks as Crossrail will still run some
trains into Liverpool St rather than in to the tunnels post 2019.


Will they not be sharing with South Eastern in the Abbey Wood area?
