http://www.metro-report.com/news/news-by-region/europe/single-view/view/old-oak-common-elizabeth-line-depot-opens.html I’m intrigued by what actually changed on May 10th, thr date it ‘opened’. AFAICT there are still large areas fenced off for construction work; test trains have been running in and out regularly for several months and continue to do so; in the last few weeks (before it ‘opened’) I counted seven sets stabled there; and the signalling alterations to allow use of the wash plant and more than one line on/off have just been put back (probably only slightly, and this is not an unusual occurrence). So what actually happened on May 10th? Somebody cut a ribbon? Anna Noyd-Dryver |

Not if they followed the plans. They were only supposed to stick geothermal loops in the construction piles (as well as in umpteen boreholes) for heating/cooling. I have no idea if "energy piles" are good value for money or a gimmick. -- Robin reply-to address is (intended to be) valid |

Now I have visions of Michael Caine beside a nuclear accident, shouting "You're only supposed to stick the bloody loops in". |
