I don't know enough about the (complex) track layout and platforming to know if that would give any useful increase in capacity. Historically, IIRC, there were four tracks between Waterloo and Barnes. I do not know how much the reduction around the Nine Elms flyover reduced needed capacity. Discussion of new services from Waterloo to Heathrow always seems to flounder on the need to replace level crossings around Mortlake rather than limited capacity in Nine Elms. |
