So you're saying if you took away the MAN/LGW rail links, there'd be a significant drop in traffic? I don't buy that.. i'd say the vast majority of people using the train would just switch to an alternative form of transport and still use the same airport.
Trains make it easier - but without them it wouldn't stop people travelling.
