How do you work that out? Seems to be 6 to me, 2 to Victoria via
Crystal Palace, 2 to Caterham and 2 to Sutton.

Then 6 to London Brodge as well...

It's a bit silly to count both directions... not many people turn up at
a station and get on the first train that's going anywhere.


Except at termini. And Penge.


I'm not going to turn up at Victoria and get on the first train that's
going anywhere.


I was thinking of tube termini (Walthamstow, Cockfosters, etc), where
there's only one direction - i did express it rather badly, though. And
places like Morden and Uxbridge don't work anyway.

Why do you get on the first train at Penge? Is Penge really so bad you
want to escape as soon as possible? :-)


Yes.
