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!


They mean trains per hour. It is 24 tph per central area branch with 16
turning at Kennington and 8 running through to Morden IIRC.


Presumably, 16 turning from the CX branch only, with all Banks running
through to Morden? Making 24 from Bank + (24 - 16 =) 8 from CX = 32?
