Even if some new tracks had to be laid in the suburbs the cost probably would be far less than digging new tunnels in the urbanized areas. ... bring the Heathrow Express into Charing Cross station for better access to the West End?It's a good idea but the routes you have named are way too crowded or too devious. You could probably build a Heathrow branch off the lines from Windsor to Waterloo. Waterloo is directly connected by underground to the west end (three lines), the City, and Canary Wharf, all of which would become a two-seat ride from the airport. Heathrow trains could occupy the Eurostar (Channel Tunnel) terminal at Waterloo, soon to be vacated when the St Pancras Euro-terminal opens in 2007. |
