The Crossrail branch to Kingston will probably replace the District line
service to Richmond. What should happen to the 6 District trains per
hour
that currently serve Richmond?

What about sending the district to Rayners lane? the sending all piccs to
heathrow? in which case the picc and deistrict wouldn't have to share any
track?

That seems the most logical solution, and would allow increased frequencies
to Heathrow. After all, the line to Rayner's Lane was originally District
wasn't it?

It would be sensible, however, for Crossrail to serve Willesden regardless,
although this would necessitate a dog-leg off the GWML and back again. This
would allow many more lines (WLL, NLL, WCML DC lines) to get a decent
Heathrow connection.
