But the overcrowding on the 1824 didn't get sorted out until December

And when it did, it was slightly over-sorted-out. Though the balance
may have returned if people have realised it is a quiet train - that
certainly happened over the 0719 (now 0714) and 0730 MKC-EUS in that
the latter was at first pretty much dead, but over a couple of months
people (particularly from LBZ) started using it and it started to fill
up.

The EMT gateline at St Pancras International has also been upgraded to

Hopefully this will enable staff to fully use the gateline on
Thameslink diversion dates where previously FCC pax have been directed
to the end of the barrier line to a gap in the fence with no revenue
check at all. Always found this very annoying but would make sense if
they were not oyster enabled.
