The overcrowding is probably the worst thing; it's actually been too
successful.

Yes, the trains urgently need those fifth cars. It's amazing that
three-car 313s were regarded as adequate not so long ago.

Adequate?

I take the point about the current services being very busy but they
aren't yet quite at the crazy levels in these photos.

Ouch, yes I'd forgotten how crowded the 313s had become towards the

I remember that they used to call NLL various names, such as "The Silver
Bullet" and "The Free Line."
