And put them on the equally overcrowded at peak times Northern City

I was presuming that the line would no longer serve its current
destinations beyond finsbury park.


and GN pax from north of FP are going to do what exactly? "Sod it, I'm

King's Cross instead"?


Perhaps they'd get off at finsbury park and change onto the train from
highgate. Just a wild guess. Anyway , its a theoretical exercise so
who cares.
