The whole point of the &amp;quot;New Tube for London&amp;quot; project was that new modern trains were tied to signalling upgrades, which would let more trains run on the existing lines in a more reliable way.&lt;p&gt;The trains were already ordered so will be delivered, with the associated flashy benefits of new carriages, but now the line capacity won&amp;#x27;t increase, so you&amp;#x27;ll still get the same breakdowns and delays that currently happen now. The Piccadilly line also won&amp;#x27;t be able to stop at the stations it currently skips (since they don&amp;#x27;t want to delay service any further than now) – making the Piccadilly Line stop at some of the stations it currently skips was also tied to the signalling upgrades.&lt;p&gt;It&amp;#x27;s classic top-down &amp;quot;you need to cut on costs&amp;quot; decision making leading to having to make compromises on a project in a way that it&amp;#x27;ll still cost a bunch of money, but without a major benefit at the expense of a (comparatively) small cost saving. You see this in software engineering all the time too.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>The Piccadilly line’s new air conditioned trains</title><url>https://www.ianvisits.co.uk/articles/cool-commutes-ahead-inside-look-at-londons-new-piccadilly-line-trains-undergo-testing-in-germany-67513/</url></story>
