I reckon nearly all commuters who use the ELL change at Canada Water or Whitechapel.

I've used the line to Shoreditch High St (SHS) as an alternative route into work. The trains are packed after New Cross Gate and then ~90% get off at Canada Water. Then the rest get off at Whitechapel. After that, there's hardly anyone on the train - you would think it was Sunday 3pm and not Monday 8am.


Shadwell is also becoming a more popular interchange, however, as there is only one Tower Gateway train every ten minutes it is often better to stay on till Whitechapel if you are heading to Tower Hill (this is not so relevant for Bank/Monument!).

When the ELL connects to Highbury & Islington, I suspect that more people will continue past Whitechapel.

Now if only they could make all the 'New Cross' trains head to West Croydon or Palace instead..! Cool
