Are you suggesting an arrangement existed before 1976 then?



I can't answer these questions, but a couple of things are worth
drawing attention to to help focus.

Firstly, Finsbury Park to Moorgate via Northern City did have evening
and Sunday services for many years. It's relatively recently that
they've stopped, and certainly doesn't go back to the 1970s.


The main point about the situation pre-1976 is that the GNCR was always
part of the Underground before then. Once BR took it over the evening and
weekend services did fluctuate somewhat but have always been more limited
than those on some other lines.
