8 tph max end to end in the peaks (on the NLL) is actually an
improvement over the original proposed timetable - which would only
have had 6 tph west of Camden Rd, with 2 tph from Stratford terminating
there.

Likewise the ELL service has never been described as anything higher
than 'up to' 18 tph in the peak on the core section, and 8 tph between
Highbury and Dalston Jn.


Any idea why the NLL frequency is much lower than the ELL? The ELL is a
very handy service in my view - I rarely have to wait as long as 5 mins
at Dalston J. But I used the NLL yesterday morning at about 10.30 am
and it had a 10 minute service interval, and the trains are more
crowded anyway.
