Crossrail Limited, which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Transport for London, is currently working on a revised delivery plan. Crossrail Limited has committed to delivering the full Elizabeth line services, including those to Slough, as quickly as possible once the central tunnels have been completed, to provide a service that will carry up to 200 million passengers a year.
Elizabeth line services will call at the existing station at Slough which is currently, and will continue to be, served by Great Western Railway services.
