Trains to New Barnet - Station Details and further Information on New Barnet Train Services
New Barnet train station is in the London Borough of Barnet in north London, and is in Travelcard Zone 5. It is (10 miles) north of Moorgate and is on the main East Coast Main Line between London Kings Cross and Edinburgh Waverley. The station and all trains serving it are operated by First Capital Connect.
Following the major station refurbishment in 2005, a coffee shop was opened in the previously unused building on the southbound, central London-bound platform. In Autumn 2008, a new SHERE self-service ticket machine, accepting both cash and credit cards, was installed here.
The service from the station runs southbound to Moorgate on weekdays until about 9.30pm. Trains run southbound into London King's Cross in the early mornings, morning peak, after 9.30pm Mondays to Fridays, and all day on Saturdays and Sundays. Normally the service uses class 313 EMUs, as these are the only units cleared to Moorgate, although on weekends sometimes class 317 EMUs are used instead.
The typical off-peak service is 3 trains per hour southbound to Moorgate, and 3 trains per hour northbound to Welwyn Garden City. In the evenings and on weekends, the service is reduced to two trains per hour in both directions. |
