The Eight European Cities With The Best Public Transport, According To Time Out
Shiny-new and high-speed, this line is highlighted as one of the key modern ways to get around London’s extensive public transport network, standing out as a major addition alongside the Underground, buses, bikes and Overground services. - Liv Kelly
Fast and easy way to get from Heathrow to central London. Not the cheapest that would be the underground Piccadilly line but for 12 pounds this is a good deal and you’re at Paddington station in 25 minutes. East and clear signage in Heathrow and you can use Apple Pay for easy on and off the train. Trains are clean and safe and run every 10 minutes

The Elizabeth Line has become very crowded at peak times. More trains are needed at shorter intervals at busy times, like the other underground lines.

Terrible service majority of the time. Closed 3 weekends in a row with non existent bus replacement 'services total joke. Essentially if you want to get around good luck. Walk or wait for 5 buses in a row that are too rammed to get on. Its 2025 and sadly, pathetically, we are no further forward.

Shiny metro line that's a tourist trap! Customer officer directed to buy tickets (over 6 pounds/ person to travel 2 stops) from the machine only to be told afterwards that they can be had at a fraction the cost if taping the card directly on the gate.

An essential line when travelling between the City of London to either Slough or Reading. Trains are overcrowded when travelling towards Slough but become quieter when the train stops about halfway between Slough and Ealing Broadway.
Also the only regular line that travels from Ealing Broadway to Reading however this line needs to have Oyster valid for the entire trip past West Drayton, where it is best to get off at either Ealing Broadway or Paddington to buy GWR tickets to continue your journey.
A good line with room for improvement that is possible to achieve.
P.S. The trains run about once every 10 minutes to Reading versus once every 20 minutes on the GWR to Didcot Parkway so the trains run more often and stop at more places but run slower than the GWR. A huge upgrade to the Western Suburbs of London.

At least twice per week trains are cancelled because of failures. Since its the newest line and most expensive one I would expect reliable, normal service
