| Physically, the station will be able to cope, as it’s built to handle traffic for the full HS2 line – and expects to handle as many as 250,000 passengers every day. Under the current plans Old Oak Common would be the London terminus for HS2 up to Birmingham, and by the time HS2 reaches Manchester, then Euston station will be open as well, and it has the capacity to cope with the additional passengers.For people heading to west London, it’s always been expected that many will likely take GWR trains to Paddington. However, the majority of people are expected to want to head into central London, either as the destination or to swap onto London Underground lines — and that means the Elizabeth line will have to absorb vastly larger numbers of passengers than it is already carrying.Although HS2 isn’t expected to open until some point between 2029-33, TfL is warning that it will need to place the orders for the new trains soon, as the cost of doing so later will be significantly more expensive. That’s because the factory lines to build Elizabeth line trains at Alstom’s factory in Derbyshire are still in place, but will be demobilised soon. If the trains aren’t ordered before that happens, then the cost of reactivating the factory lines has to be included in the bill.Depending on how many are needed to absorb HS2’s passengers, there’s a potential requirement for an additional depot for the Elizabeth line to be built. The depot at Plumstead may have the potential to be expanded, but it would suit the requirements of the HS2 mitigation to have a depot to the west of London, where they could then run relatively empty trains into Old Oak Common station. -- ???????? | |||
