No it isn't. Your previous statement is clearly false.

No, it's mildly hyperbolic. Nonetheless, I'd happily stake my life
that the majority of people who:

1) work Monday-Friday jobs in central London
2) commute to/from Bow Road
3) don't go out after work on Friday night for more than a couple of
drinks

do arrive at that station before 7pm on a Friday evening.
