take sardines in a basket and you'll get plenty of space. some of those trains can get very busy, but if you aim for one with only a 5 min gap to the previous train and head towards the front you should be fine.

yes, take one with only a short break to the previous train (the 8.50 for example is 5mins after the previous train but the 8.45 is 13mins after the previous train.

 

And make sure it is a six carriage train.

Then it should be ok on a normal day. If there are any disruptions to services the trains do get very very crowded however so the bus might be easier.

I get the 9am train from ally pally to moorgate, most days get a seat, if not there normally plenty of space to stand with a cat box. If I see you, i'll offer you my seat :)

I take the train everyday, usually if you take the 850 or 859 you are ok not as many people and if you get on front/end less any eaerlier it will be crowded.
