Default More trains on the Northern line, but where?

Been reading the last issue of London Loop. In an article about work on
the Northern line, it says:

* There will be more trains too - making a total of 24 on the central and
* northern branches, and 32 on the Morden section.

Do they mean trains, or trains per hour? Or something else? And is that 24
on each branch, or between the two? I'm guessing the latter and the
former, respectively!


Are these the improvements that are due to resignalling but being
attributed to splitting the line in order to justify the inconvenience
caused by that, but then attributed to the signalling as well to justify
the disruption caused by the signalling work, thus having all cakes and
eating them?


I don't know, but now i want cake.

Are you suggesting that with the new signalling, the line could be run
un-split and be as frequent and reliable as in the split case?
