Default 5 car Overground trains to Watford Junction

on Thu, 15 Jan 2015, remarked:
If we filter on trains passing through Stratford [so excluding WA,
Chingford etc] and Watford Junction on their way to the respective
stations, in the hour from 8am, it's 35 to Liverpool St and 11 to
Euston.


Recliner has already reminded us we're not just talking about passengers,
with the WCML being the busiest mixed-traffic railway in Europe, supposedly.
Since the discussion is about freight on the NLL we might have thought you'd
have remembered that.


Can you post a link to 24tph freight trains each way on the WCML?

I can see up to about eight an hour flicking through RTT (4 each way).

Of course there's also freight on the GEML, up to four an hour (2 each
way), which sort of puts a limit on the number going GEML-WCML. Pretty
much all of those four go round the NLL, of course.
