The cross rail project is very impressive. You will be able to get a train fro reading through Heathrow and across London but I have an issue...
Other infrastructure has been forgotten. Cross rail does not go to Gatwick airport or Epson or any important areas south of the themes apart from Woolwich. This is very strange. It is like it was only built to relieve congestion on the existing network and not to get more people onto trains.
Well
Ether way it is a step in the right direction, it will be interesting to see what the trains look like when it is all finished.
