Posted by Fytton on Tue Nov 2 07:44:13 2004, in response to Re: London's five-year plan, posted by David Fairthorne on Mon Nov 1 18:24:56 2004. For completeness, the current off peak service on the (UK!) Brighton Line is:Victoria to Brighton calling Clapham Junction and East Croydon, 2 tph Victoria to Eastbourne/Worthing (dividing at Haywards Heath) calling Clapham Junction, East Croydon, Gatwick Airport and Haywards Heath, 2 tph Thameslink to Brighton calling London Bridge, East Croydon, Gatwick Airport and Haywards Heath, 2 tph Thameslink to Brighton calling London Bridge, East Croydon, Gatwick Airport, Three Bridges*, Haywards Heath and all stations, 2 tph (*of which 1 tph also calls at Balcombe) Watford to Brighton calling Kensington Olympia, West Brompton, Clapham Junction, East Croydon, Gatwick Airport, Three Bridges, Haywards Heath ansd all stations, 1 tph Total 7 tph into Brighton, 7 tph calling at Haywards Heath, 4 tph from Victoria, 4 tph from London Bridge, 9 tph altogether. When I lived in Brighton in my childhood, we had 1 tph non-stop Victoria-Brighton, one semifast Victoria-Brighton (calling Clapham Junction, East Croydon, Three Bridges?? and Haywards Heath - Gatwick Airport wasn't important then), and two slow (one from Victoria, one from London Bridge) all stations from Three Bridges on. Total of 4 tph into Brighton. I'm not sure how frequent the Eastbourne/Worthing service was the - maybe 1 tph on each route but not dividing, giving a total of 6 tph down the Brighton main line as against 9 tph now. |
