If you arrive at Gatwick Airport between 5pm and 6pm I believe there are just 4 train services south to Haywards Heath where as for lost of the day it's at least 9 per hour. The 4 trains are not evenly spread out either.
When I get to Clapham Junction around 7.30am I often hear an announcement on platform 13 telling passengers for Brighton to change at East Croydon. Wen I look at the next direct board it shows 8.13 or something like that as the next train.
Of course any fast train to London during morning peak rush hour and again from London during peak rush hour for the fact they don't stop at Clapham Junction. Commuters might know this but I doubt many other people do. Some years ago I did find myself on a slow service from Clapham Junction because I hadn't realised a gap in the service existed.
Guildford to London via Woking on Sundays. Yes there are four trains an hour but surprisingly they 5 minutes apart and then a 25 minute gap and another 5 minutes apart. Back to Guildord from Woking it's 3 minutes and then 27 minutes! Surprisingly uneven when you first encounter it.
I'm sure there are many other examples. So please post the ones you know of.
