Just wondering!
We are always being told about the overcrowding on the Brighton Main Line and that the East Croydon to London Bridge section is full to capacity, so I was wondering if Southern could run services directly into Waterloo instead of just Victoria and London Bridge?
Obviously Southern currently run through Clapham Junction as do the SWT services into Waterloo - do the separate lines join up easily or would it be a logistical nightmare?
Also, I don't know what the space for running between CLJ and WAT is like, or is this section at capacity too?
I know it is possible to change at CLJ from a Southern Service if you want to get to Waterloo, but since the introduction of the GatEx's in the peak to Victoria, there are not as many services that stop at CLJ.
I don't expect it to happen - just wondered if it was possible!
