Northern City Line

The Northern City Line is a railway line from Moorgate to Finsbury Park in London, part of the Great Northern Route services. It is underground from Moorgate to Drayton Park, and runs in a cutting from there until meeting the East Coast Main Line south of Finsbury Park. It carries passengers from London's northern inner suburbs to and from the City of London, the UK's main financial centre. Services used to run only on weekdays until around 10 pm; at other times all trains ran to King's Cross instead. However, from the December 2015 timetable change, the service was extended to run later into the evenings and at weekends meeting a new franchise commitment for a minimum of 6 trains per hour until 23:59 on weekdays and 4 trains per hour at weekends.
