The Hounslow loop is appalling. I really does need more than a half hourly service and hourly(!) on a Sunday.
One interesting possibility is the introduction of the 4 day working week. If this happens, which It probably should, then we maybe be back in the office full time, given we have an extra day off.
I do think we need more incentives to commute on the railway. Perhaps some sort of “rail miles” scheme or “do 4 commutes a week and get a free coffee”? Anything. I say this out of complete selfishness as a rail enthusiast who misses the 2019 timetable. If I had the option of home working at some of the awful offices I worked in pre-COVID, I would have jumped at it.
How does Waterloo only get 60 million passengers yet each SWR train I get is packed like sardines?
Waterloo was at almost 100 million in 2019, now it's at approx 60 mil. Yet all the trains I've taken are packed. I rarely get a seat. Were the trains packed even tighter before?
