It's nice "work" if you can get it. But the job will be a lot less
attractive in a few years time when services actually start running, when
the generous salary is combined with actual work, and on a shift system
at that. Some of them might decide to move elsewhere.

I fully expect that when Crossrail actually starts, they will still need
to use the excuse that's so common on Govia-Thameslink: "service
cancelled because of shortage of staff".


Yes, undoubtedly.

They may soon be busy, as intensive test service is due to start by the
Spring. They still have an internal target to start services through the
central tunnel by mid-Oct 2021, with all stations open.


I wish them good luck with that.
