Train Query - East Croydon

[sophie]

Hi all

Another train query. Again, posting this here as haven't had any joy googling etc!

Have the trains from Sydenham to East Croydon been massively reduced? I am looking at going to Brighton and see that most of the trains involve a change at Norwood Junction then East Croydon. I could only find 1 train in a 3 hour window which didn't involve Norwood Junction. Is it just my imagination that we used to be able to hop on frequent trains to East Croydon? Is it part of the trade off for the Overground service?

Thanks all.

I think they may be more frequent direct train during the morning rush hours then they require a change at Norwood junction during the day, I don't know if they start up again during the evening rush .
