Even if they're not planning UIC gauge trains, building the tunnels to UIC gauge would cost little if anything extra. Nonsense. The cost of building the Crossrail tunnels to accept double deck trains would be considerably higher. Really, whys that then? Would the actual boring part of the TBM cost substantially more if its diameter was increased by a metre? Would the extra concrete cost raise the project costs much higher? Or are you just BSing because you always want to appear to know best? But this is britain, planning for unforseen future needs is frowned upon as we all know. But this is Boltar, who is an ignorant ****wit as we all know. Ah , the irony. B2003 |
