A recent e-mail from LU Customer Services said "Since September 1996 the
Piccadilly Line timetable has offered by far the most intensive service
anywhere on the London Underground network." This seems a doubtful
statement, even ignoring the fact that the frequency was cut back in
September 2002.

Can anyone with access to the current working timetables tell me the peak
trains per hour on the trunk section of each of the major lines? I'm only
interested in the morning and evening peak services in Central London.

Don't have the timetable to hand, but the Northern Line has a two minute
service between Morden and Kennington in the peak (and around 3 minutes
for the rest of the time until close of traffic).

The Picc runs its full service between Arnos Grove and Acton Town. I
don't think any other line runs its full service over anywhere near
such a distance.

Possibly true, but I assumed that "intensive service" referred to service
frequency.

Does anyone know what the Peak frequency of the Hammersmith and City
up to Whitechapel is? The timetables say every 8 minutes, but it seems
more frequent (at least when it turns up at all!!) :-)
