The new timetable has obviously had an effect, but is it really the
timetable recast or just longer journey times that are to thank for the
improvement?


I'd have hoped for more than 90% seeing the time trains I've been
wait at stations. 5 minutes at Epsom in the evening is rather
excessive. In the morning there's at least a minutes wait at Motspur
Park and that can't be to give time for everyone to board. Don't think
the number reaches double figures!

Worse still, I've been on trains which have sat around for a minute
and a half at Earlsfield. Not long ago, half the trains wouldn't even
have stopped there.
