I must admit that I’m becoming quite a big fan of the Elizabeth Line. I use it quite a bit, as it’s the quickest and easiest way up into central London. I don’t think I’m alone in this either: every time I use the Lizzie Line, there seems to be quite a few other people on the train too. I’m no expert, of course, but I would say the line has been quite a success. I was coming home on it this afternoon, and noticed that my fellow Londoners had taken to it as enthusiastically as every other tube line. That makes me wonder, though: if the first crossrail has been so well received, might it be time to start work on the second? I know the mayor effectively kicked the project into the long grass, but I’d be interested to see whether momentum starts to build on it again soon.
