Farringdon?


At least when I've used City Thameslink it's not been particularly busy.
This is normally at the end of the morning peak, at a time when London
Bridge (for example) is heaving.


Maybe it's something to do with Blackfriars and Farringdon both having
more trains to more places, but only being a short walk away (which is
particularly relevant given the sluggish journey on trains between these
stations!).
