Has anyone thought this through? Why would a passenger from Stansted if
given the choice of a direct stansted express or a train that stops at 20
odd stations going via epping, choose the latter to get to london?


To avoid the exorbitant SEx[0] fares? I usually prefer the Picc from LHR
and Southern from LGW for similar reasons.
