Errors in the filming of a train documentary.
It's showing an S Stock train being delivered for service use and then it's calling at a station with platform edge/screen doors. This cannot happen in London with an S Stock train, as the only tube line that has platform/screen edge doors is the Jubilee Line (deep level) and it doesn't use S Stock trains, but 1996 Stock. Also, Jubilee Line trains don't have air conditioning (yet), unlike S Stock trains on sub-surface lines.

Now they are going on about Crossrail saying it will go to Heathrow. Incorrect again.
Crossrail will also go to Reading as well as Heathrow.

Apparently 26 billion dollars is going to be spent on the ongoing LU upgrade. Money well spent IMO.
