remarked:

Is HS2 feasible without CR2?

Yes.

HS2 phases 1 and 2a are scheduled to open long before CR2 could be
completed, so CR2 isn't relevant to them. Passengers arriving at Euston
will, as now, have direct connections to both Northern line branches
(hopefully benefiting from a much higher frequency than today), the
Victoria line,


We can hope for the latter. Unfortunately the Victoria Line is saturated
there, southbound trains in the peaks having left Kings Cross with no
room at all.


True, but I suppose that HS2 pax will tend to arrive after the busiest
time.


And get to work late/miss those important business appointments??
