New Hertford North Timetable
For anyone using the Hertford North line to return home mid-evening, it's worth picking up a new time-table. The switchover from Moorgate to Kings Cross for trains to Hertford it going to be quite a bit later from next week. At the moment the last train leaving Moorgate is at 20.20, but from next week it will be be 21.50. The first train from Kings Cross will be at 22.26.

A couple of years too late for me but about time.
I now work in Wood Green and catch the train to/from Ally Pally so I tend not to stay for a drink after work.

The starting Gate next to Ally Pally is OK for a quick "the train was delayed' pint

i'm surprised you take the train to WoodGreen, I worked there for 2 yrs and drove every day! So much quicker once you have tried some different routes. The train took forever!

Doesn't Help Me - If I am on a late shift I don't finish till 10pm so have to trek to Kings Cross Anyway.
I suppose It could be worse - if the 22.26 went from Moorgate and the 22.56 from Kings Cross then I would be ******ed if I missed the 22.26

i've tried this route - actually takes longer than going straight down the A10. Any other suggestions?

Try the A1 - very good if you live on that side of Hertford speed limits are higher than on the A10
The Essendon/Potters Bar Route is good when it is quiet - shorter and uses less fuel but if it is busy then it doesn't help.
(It is quite good for getting out of London early in the morning rather than using the A1)

Not noticed any. I was more looking at the late night trains, sorry buses, when I looked at it.

The ones I checked (between 7.30 & 9am) were all leaving at the same time. A few are taking an extra minute to arrive.
