They seem to be prioritising interchange hubs and those stations where is there little or no alternative public transport and letting less busy stations shut down.

It is likely that the London Overground GOBLIN service will be reduced next week, but there are no details available at the moment. We are making representations to TfL as BGORUG believes 'orbital' Overground passengers are much less likely to be able to work from home than passengers on the radial routes into the central area. Reliability will now be subject to staff availability as well as the ongoing unreliability of the new trains.

The least busy station of the Victoria Line's 'Seven Sisters Group' is Blackhorse Road and this is slated for closure as staff shortages develop. This will include the closure of the Overground GOBLIN platforms. Interchange between the GOBLIN and the Victoria Line will still be possible by walking between South Tottenham and Seven Sisters stations.
