The indifference the moorgate line is treated with baffles me given that its
packed to the gunwales in the rush hours. I wouldn't be surprised if more
people travel to old street and moorgate on GN than to KX.


Given that there's 14tph GN into Kings Cross in the rush hour (several
being 12-car) and only 12tph into Moorgate, I suspect you'd lose that
bet.


Except the KX trains tend to empty at finsbury park. I suspect the reason
there are more to KX is they simply can't fit any more in the tunnel down
to moorgate.
