Default North London Line goes 4-car in early 2011

I could never understand why they didn't order four-car units for the
North London line from the outset. You only have to look at the
loadings on the 313s to see that additional capacity was desperately
needed.


The 313s weren't ordered for the NLL, they were pinched form the Welwyn
GC/Hertford North lines when demand on those lines had temporarily fallen.
