Now that Blake Hall is closed which is now the least used station?

Roding Valley, IIRC, on the assumption you are referring to London
Underground stations only.

The LU station stats for 2006 are at
http://www.tfl.gov.uk/corporate/mode...underground/15...
(You used to be able to get to it via "Corporate" and then "London
Underground", but the link from there seems to have disappeared in the
last week or so.)

Roding Valley does appear to be the least used (0.179 million
entries/exits per annum), followed I think by Grange Hill at 0.287
million.

If you go back to 2003 then both Grange Hill and Chigwell were lower than
Roding Valley but for some reason the Roding Valley figures have remained
constant while the other two have increased significantly.

I don't know when the evening service improved, but it would make a
lot of difference (and maybe take time for habits to change). People
who had to drive to (say) Buckhurst Hill in order to get home again
may not have to do so.


And maybe the figures are being measured differently since Oyster. Eg
from closed ticket office selling zero tickets to people bleeping
their shop-topped Oysters on the pads at all times of day.
