For passengers who use the service to go between Guys and Kings College Hospital, it'll require a change at Peckham Rye where they'll be 10tph for the majority of the day to Denmark Hill. (4tph from Dartford, 2tph from Sevenoaks and 4tph on the ELL)

Peckham Rye and Denmark Hill will lose two direct services to Victoria, however the ELL will enable passengers to change at Clapham Junction for additional services to Victoria and also Waterloo and connections to West/SW London for the first time.

Clapham High Street is next to the Northern line tube station which has regular services into the city and also an interchange at Stockwell for the Victoria Line for Victoria.

While Wandsworth Road will lose it's service to Victoria, the fact it'll have 4tph to Clapham Junction, an increase of 2tph compared to the current Southern line and also interchanges for the tube at Clapham High Street, Canada Water (for Canary Wharf) and Whitechapel, this will give passengers a cheaper alternative to get to that area instead of going via Zone 1.

Where pressure should be put on is to ensure Southeastern provide additional services to Peckham Rye and Denmark Hill to Victoria using mainline services to compensate for the loss of the 2 SLL services from Southern.
