Is that really a noticeable percentage of 28 million?

Why do you think this particular stretch of line will pay its operating
costs from revenue, when the system taken as a whole doesn't?

[Tube fares are about £1.6BN, operating costs about £2.4BN, capital
costs on top of that].

Wait a moment! Entire network ticket sales £1,600m; projected Croxley
Link ticket sales £28m. Does anyone really believe that the Croxley
link will increase network sales by 2%?

I'd guess what little it will generate will just be stolen from this and
other networks.
