I suspect that demand would so far strip supply that the platforms would
be dangerously overcrowded.

I was suggesting fairly short runs, with one train in each tunnel. You'd
get about one every 10 minutes I suppose.

Just lift the rails for a short section south of the station.

But I agree that you'd have to see where the power feed was, and make
sure that was sufficient within the proposed schemes.

In the central section, a current section might only be a few hundred
yards long and is easily isolated by touching the telephone wires
together and laying down short circuiting bars in the section.
