Kensington Olympia district line

Does this happen a lot? Why has the branch survived? No - and because a hell of a lot of people use it. Not true. There are only a few quieter stations anywhere else on the network, and certainly none as close to Central London as Olympia. There are around 400 entries and 400 exits during the AM peak (0700 to 1000) which, if divided between the 12 or so trains which run during this period, give around 30 per train, or 5 per carriage. Off peak, the numbers are lower. Roding Valley, Chigwell and Chesham are lower... any others? Cheers Steve M You are referring to the Overground - the OP was talking about the tube, and of the trains I observed (but didn't count) I would reckon up to 200 on several trains, maybe a 1000 in total between 0700 and 1000. Incidentally, we counted over 400 entries and exits just on the southbound platform. MaxB |
