More trains on old WAGN lines

Yes and where do they then go? Moorgate is a very tight bottleneck Really? Has its capacity been reduced since all that extra stock now on the North London Line used to run there? It may be poor but I do use the Hertford line infrequently and typically off peak. It is never more than 20% full even with 3 car trains. .... because people who have a choice use the Piccadilly Line, because it's more frequent. Too frequent, actually - north of Arnos Grove, the Picc seems to have about 1 person per carriage for much of the week. Would TfL really run that level service parallel to a 18tph tube line? I think you've just answered your own question. A train ever ten minutes all day south of Gordon Hill and New Barnet would do a lot to pull people back from the Picc, so frequent trains might end up fuller than infrequent ones. Wimbledon to West Croydon springs to mind. |
