Quote of the month:

" The one evident fact, which increasingly stares any dispassionate observer in the face, is that the official Crossrail scheme makes absolutely no operational or economic sense at all. It urgently needs saving from itself by being subjected to a basic re-think – not of the central tube, which could be taken as a fixed element, but of the number and length and location of the outer branches. Hopefully the Select Committee will prove to be the catalyst. Unless it can do so, I fear Crossrail is soon doomed to hit the buffers"
