work? Admittedly there would be performance implications
from only having
one platform at T123 for some months, but it has to be
preferable to closing
T4 station.

Can trains turns back at Hatton Cross?

Yes, it was the termination point before Heathrow Central (now T12&3)
opened.

No. As has been pointed out in this thread at least twice already, the
services will actually be
..- Hatton Cross - T123 - T5 and in reverse, and
..- Hatton Cross - T4 - T123 - HX as at present.

And we've been told that roughly 1/3 trains T4123 and 2/3 123T5

The station at T5 will have 3 platforms and cripple sidings.

Getting from T5 to T4 seems like the difficult part.

But there may not be much demand for that journey, depending on the future
use of T4. According to reports this week*, British Airways will use T5
for all of their flights, and T4 will be occupied by the Skyteam alliance,
which consists of Air France, KLM, Delta and Northwest Airlines.

We wont be doing it - either T4 or T5 not both.

My error, BTW, should have read T4123 above (as today)

I just think having two different services will confuse stupid
tourists!

What are LU thinking of with HX? No lifts there are there? I would
have thought telling people to change to the Heathrow Express at T123
would be better.

I thought Hatton Cross was only built when HC was built?

The extension from Hounslow West to Hatton Cross was opened on 19 Jul 1975,
more than two years before the further extension to Heathrow Central opened
on 16 Dec 1977.
