Class 345s, stored, Old Oak Common 
 What a shambles! With no date yet set for the opening of Crossrail's Elizabeth Line, the stock that was delivered on-time ready for the planned opening date stands idle. The taxpayer is paying for these Class 345s to sit in the purpose-built sidings at Old Oak Common whilst arguments continue about who is to blame for this debacle. Whilst some of the trains are operating a limited service between Paddington and Reading on some sort of rota basis most sit idle and no doubt deteriorating but at the same time drawing power.
