| rdfs:comment | - Crossrail is a 118-kilometre (73-mile) railway line under development in London and the home counties of Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Essex. The central section and a large portion of the line, between Paddington in central London and Abbey Wood in the south-east, are due to open in December 2018; at that time the service will be named the Elizabeth line.[5] The western section beyond Paddington, to Reading in Berkshire and Heathrow Airport, is due to enter operation in December 2019, completing the new east-west route across Greater London. Part of the eastern section, between Liverpool Street and Shenfield in Essex, was transferred to a precursor service called TfL Rail in 2015; this section will be connected to the central route through central London to Paddington in May 2019.
- Crossrail is a project to build major new railway connections under central London. The project's name refers to the first of two routes which are the responsibility of Crossrail Ltd. It is based around an east-west tunnel with a central section from Paddington to Liverpool Street station. The second route is the Chelsea–Hackney line. The project was approved in October 2007 and the Crossrail Act received Royal Assent in July 2008.

The project was approved in 2007 and construction began in 2009 on the central section of the line – a new tunnel through central London – and connections to existing lines that will become part of Crossrail.

- Crossrail is a project to build major new railway connections under central London. The project's name refers to the first of two routes which are the responsibility of Crossrail Ltd. It is based around an east-west tunnel with a central section from Paddington to Liverpool Street station. The second route is the Chelsea–Hackney line. The project was approved in October 2007 and the Crossrail Act received Royal Assent in July 2008. Services will complement the enhanced north-south Thameslink route. Ten-carriage trains will run at frequencies of up to 24 trains per hour (tph) in each direction through the central tunnel section. The original planned schedule was that the first trains would run in 2017. In 2010 a Comprehensive Spending Review saving over £1bn of the £15.9bn projected costs meant that the first trains are now planned to run on the central section in 2018.
