Of course I don’t see anyone starting anything in the current climate (my plans are on hold for sure) and by the time it’s going to be possible again will passengers have found another way to travel?

I'd love that to happen. I'd love to see the services run on an evening to suit shifts and visiting hours too. 
To attract and grow, they're gonna have to make it frequent enough to attract punters away from GNE, (in addition to making some sort of network) and I can't see that happening, particularly with the lack of integration and multi-ticketing options.
OK did some work to/from/past the QE with a handful of services (including commercial stuff). I think those days are long-gone unfortunately and I can't see anyone being able to step up like they did.
A shame, because its the passengers who lose out, are inconvenienced and continue to make the modal switch away from public transport.

I'd have thought diverting a Q1/Q2 around Harlow Green or even sending the 93/94 that way would be a better option.
