i.e. Twyford is busier than all intermediate stations except Maidenhead,
Slough, Hayes & H, and Ealing Bdy. That seems to be before counting
passengers transferring from the Henley branch.

While Crossrail's current position is that it will run an entirely stopping
service, I think there is a case for a mixture of semi-fast and stopping
trains, at least west of West Drayton and possibly east of Stratford.

A-la Thameslink's current patterns?
