When crossrail starts with Hex vanish?

Heathrow Express will continue as is, with Crossrail replacing
Heathrow Connect. HEx customers already pay over the odds for a not
particularly convenient journey, and I'm sure they'll continue to.

I can't see any reason for its
continued existence but what would happen to the franchise holders?

Heathrow Express is owned and run by BAA. It isn't a franchise and
I'd imagine they have quite a long term track access agreement with
Network Rail for getting its trains to Paddington, so it can't easily
be shut down by external forces.
