I do! I don’t want to arrive at a station to see a train leave and waste 14’30” of my time waiting for the next one. I always check times (and how they are running).
Fair enough - however when you have been a given an all day clock face timetable I'd expect there are far more passengers who don't than do.
Personally I do too to check general running conditions but am aware most don't.
A dam site more people use Earlswood than Salfords. Just got off a train there along with c20 other people miles less than Redhill so will only ever warrant half hourly but the trains are used throughout the day mainly towards London till early afternoon.
Judging by the fact that the local Facebook Rail users group gets more complaints from different people using Earlswood than anywhere else they are either a very vocal 20 or so passengers or very fed up or it is a potentially well used station as Jonathan H said.
