Crossrail 2 starts to be built in 2026
After the success of Crossrail in London, there has been some debate about whether a second such line would be a good idea. TimeOut - a publication with a very tenuous relationship with the truth when it comes to any railway topic - reckons Crossrail 2 will start to be built this year.
Sadly this is bullshit - it is simply that the extension of the British Library is going to be built so as to be able to accommodate a future Crossrail 2. There are neither plans nor finance for a Crossrail 2 currently.
