Default Crossrail NOT making connections

In article , Peter Masson
writes
The earlier plan was for dual voltage trains, to extend on the third rail
beyond Abbey Wood to Ebbsfleet. But since that was dropped Crossrail will be
25 kV OHLE only.


Nevertheless, a source tells me the trains will be dual-voltage because
it's cheap to add and it provides for a common design with other uses.
