Oh well. It now rather looks as though the whole Crossrail project will go forward on the basis of the current rather limited aspirations for the western arm - with the possible exception of extending to Reading rather than Maidenhead (is there any news on this ?). Then once the service is underway, there will probably be another rethink about additional western destinations instead of turning back nearly half the trains at Paddington. I think Reading council have been accused of being a bit slow on the uptake about the whole Crossrail thing, and starting lobbying a bit half-heartedly and a bit too late. I believe that extensions such as Maidenhead to Reading and Abbey Wood to Ebbsfleet are not entirely off the table, but are left out for now to make sure Crossrail actually gets built. -- Dave Arquati Imperial College, SW7 www.alwaystouchout.com - Transport projects in London |
