Default FGW Link excels even Thames Strains at public safety (lack of ...)

Regarding the new timetable, has anyone noticed that they claim the new
timetable will make more space on the track for a new stopping service
between Paddington and Heathrow BUT that this will not be introduced until
Spring '05... great so from December 12 to "Spring '05" are we going to be
running at an even lower capacity than normal?

Until the new trains for the stopping service to Heathrow are available,
FGWL will operate Paddington - Hayes & Harlington trains in the paths set
aside for the new service. From 12 December they should be able to alleviate
some of the overcrowding, as Adelantes will take over some journeys from
Thames Turbo (mainly Oxford and Worcester services), and Chiltern are taking
over the Stratford-upon-Avon service, so FGWL will not run north of Banbury.
