Was a stupid idea to extend onto NR tracks anyway as it means the overground
timetable is frequently up the bloody spout. One of the reasons I gave up
using it along with the nonsensical reversing of 2 out of 3 trains at Dalston
so providing a **** poor service to Highbury where 80% of northbound
passangers actually want to go.


IME the Overground timetable is not "frequently up the bloody spout".


And how often do you use it? I used it every almost every weekday for about a
month and the service was appalling. Plus they had a nice habit of running
"fast" trains to highbury when the service really was screwed which nicely
****ed over the people who were waiting at Dalston having taken a reverser
there.


I use it regularly.
