But I would imagine that trains from Hertford East have space, and
there are some peak hour services that start at Broxbourne.

I presume you mean "have space" as in "have seats"? Standing space is all
very well, but not for 35 minutes every day - maybe I've led a charmed
commuter life so far.

Regarding the peak hour services, checking the Hertford East to Broxbourne
timetable, there are trains that "appear" to start at Broxbourne:

For example at 0804, 0818 and 0835 - but checking other timetables, these
appear to start at Kings Lynn, Cambridge and Cambridge again, respectively,
so I can't seem to find these mystery ones that start at Broxbourne (that
would be like gold dust for a commute!!)

In general trains from Stansted Airport do not stop at Broxbourne other
than the Stratford service.

Good point, I'd not noticed this, thanks.
