Default Sense seen on Crossrail at last?

I only lifted quoted material from the blog - no opinion in there.

This means that Crossrail would only run to Heathrow Central and
Terminal
4 - not to Terminal 5. Passengers would be able to transfer at Heathrow
Central to the Heathrow Express for free connections to T5.


Hmmm - TfL have their work cut out getting BAA / NR / DfT to take that
on board, then!!! :-)

www.alwaystouchout.comappears to be a personal blogspot, and
therefore about as reliable as this forum, which at least has some
informed people on here.


alwaystouchout was a project of a former contributor to this
newsgroup, who was most certainly a well informed person - be in
absolutely no doubt about that. However as you can see they're not
updating it any more, so the information presented on it is frozen in
time. With a project such as Crossrail, things can of course change -
look at the Thameslink Programme, where the final service pattern is
far from certain.
