It doesn't keep local passengers off the trains. I use the Stansted
Express all the time to get fron Liverpool Street to Tottenham Hale,
and vice versa. Incidentally, when you get on the train the automated
announcement says "..Welcome to the Stansted Express, this train calls
at Tottenham Hale......"


Tottenham Hale is not shown on the departure boards at Liverpool
Street to discourage local passengers, but it doesn't work and no
attempt is made to enforce this rule.


Agreed ... it doesn't keep me off Stratford ones either.


why should it prevent that? maybe because they want to avoid to have peak
workers and tourists on the same way.
Not sure anyway..


The timetabler was a Hammer and has it in for those who hail from the
Hale... (babel says no).- Hide quoted text -

Well Tottenham Hale is an anagram of "Moth Eaten Halt", so perhaps
that is not surprising.
