Recently there have been rumours that the government is considering
axing Kingston from the Crossrail 1 plans. The line may now finish
instead at Richmond or Turnham Green.

Why would you dig a 5.3km tunnel between Old Oak Common and Turnham Green
for a new railway line and terminate the line at TG, rather than taking it to Richmond
and beyond?

Isn't it more likely that if Kingston and Richmond don't want Crossrail, then the whole
of corridor 6 will be scrapped?
