They do seem rather fixated on how "low demand" at the inner
stations would drag down the business case for other improvements. Quite
why Stansted Airport needs 6 trains an hour I do not know.


Because the current trains are running full.


And a train can only take the passengers for about four planes. With
the latter landing or taking off every two minutes, do the math.


Three and three-quarter trains per hour could carry everyone?
