Crossrail , London ’s new subway system ( and Europe ’s self-aggrandising base project ) is come on completion : the hollow have been grasp , and now there ’s just the little subject of kitting them out .
Anew series of imageshave been released by Crossrail , showing the bit that amount after digging the tunnels . A custom fleet of machines are in the process of laying the five different kinds of track , while stations turn from empty nihility into something passengers can actually queue in .
The first passenger trains should commence head for the hills in 2017 , while the full line is intend to be working by 2019 . When it ’s all done , London will have a much - demand capacity boost for its very older and very overcrowded Tube .
