I expect that hybrid working will continue indefinitely. But that's likely to mean more people wanting to travel on it for leisure. It's already become annoying that it isn't open on a Sunday yet.
- zeristor 4y agoThat's probably the most positive way to regard not being able to get a seat I've heard of. But when the line goes through at Paddington and Stratford that is when it should be regarded as working fully. Once people can stay on the train, or just jaunt over a platform to switch to the Elizabeth line it should start to show its mettle. Also I believe they plan to double the through train capacity. Also are there plans to add more carriages to the nine the trains already have?
- Tsiklon 4y agoThe central core stations are capable of handling longer trains, I believe an additional two carriages. But the above ground stations may not be capable of receiving those carriages, leading to a few where the carriage doors will not open.
