London Overground services from Brent and South Hampstead to Euston will be running more regularly, Transport for London has announced.
TfL is introducing more trains onto the network and will look to run four an hour during peak morning and evening times. This will eventually be extended across the whole of the service as the authority phases in new electric trains.
The new carriages will have free Wi-Fi and USB charging points. They will continue to be walk-through and have air-conditioning.
Rory O'Neill, TfL's general manager for London Overground, said: "We are pleased to be able to introduce additional trains on the Watford Junction to Euston route to help boost the service on the line during peak times.
"The phased introduction of these trains is an important step in delivering the improved four trains per hour service we have promised our customers."

Any thoughts?

I thought they were already running 4 trains an hour, albeit one only for training purposes prior to it being made public?

This has been a fairly long running discussion in the class 710 thread.

As you say one of the eight diagrams on the DC lines was being regularly cancelled on the day. RTT shows this was still the case at least part of each day until yesterday, and there are still cancellations shown into next week, afternoons mainly.

So it seems nothing much has changed, and this thread adds very little to the existing 710 discussion.
