Presumably the lack of Southern services at weekends is tied in with the work at Victoria? Or is it something else? Is there a risk that Southern on this line becomes weekday only? |

I suppose if it is a poor, slow service, fewer people will use it then Southern can cut the service on the basis that it isn't used. Wouldn't put it past them. |
