How many platforms is Farringdon going to have when the works are complete? 6. 2 Thameslink, 2 Met/H&C/Circle Teacup, and 2 Crossrail Peter |

The 140 tph is the peak service. 24 tph each way on each line - actually, the Met etc is already at around 27 tph, and is planned for 32 tph (16 Met, 8 H&C and 8 Circle Teacup) with the S stock and new signalling, So if the aspirations for 24 tph on both Thameslink and Crossrail come about, Farringdon could have 160 tph on 6 platforms.

Does anyong have the numbers for Clapham Junction? Also, one would imagine the numbers for the KX St. P complex must be very high. |

Does anyong have the numbers for Clapham Junction? If we're adding together NR and LU services at the same station then how about Euston or Kings Cross St Pancras ? Also, one would imagine the numbers for the KX St. P complex must be very high. |

Although I think KX StP probably takes the prize: St P International HS1 Suburban Thameslink MML KX Mainline KX Suburban Circle H&C Metropolitan Northern Picadilly Victoria I would go with Waterloo Waterloo Main Waterloo East (trains to and from Charing Cross) Northern Bakerloo Jubilee W&C Compared with the southern TOCs, at Waterloo and at Charing Cross, the terminal platforms at St Pancras (all three parts) and Kings Cross are practically quiet rural stations. Charing Cross dispatches just about as many trains in an hour from 6 platforms as Kings Cross and St Pancras (except LL) combined do from 22 (or is it 23 now?), and Waterloo, with slightly fewer non-theatre platforms than KXStP, dispatches twice as many.
