Crossrail fares announced - and a massive extension!
In message , at 09:57:54 on
Thu, 22 Mar 2018, Neil Williams remarked: Possibly, I only see the signage that says "We're brightening up our welcome" as I drive past in the coach. I've not bothered checking their plans, as they won't affect me much, but I can't see a reason to run pods there, and they would only need one tunnel for them, anyway, as the width of the existing pods to T5 would permit two way working in a single tunnel. If they're self driving pods like those being trialled in MK they run on the pavement with pedestrians at low speed. They'd be like the T5 ones (in effect a small-scale guided busway). -- Roland Perry |

Except electronically guided rather than having a physical rail which means they can only run at slow speed. |
