A train service which has “slowly been degraded” will get more trains per hour, after complaints.
In a meeting with Watford mayor Peter Taylor, West Midlands Trains confirmed that Bushey will receive four peak hours trains to London Euston and two off peak trains between Milton Keynes and London Euston each hour from December 11.
In May, West Midlands Trains, cut the number of trains to London Euston from both Watford Junction and Bushey.

Abfly rail users group member Kevin Ambrose said Bushey was losing out most from cuts while more and more people were using the service.
A commenter had said: “The service from Bushey to Euston has slowly been degraded over the years.
“More fellow commuters I know are considering driving to the tube in Stanmore.”
The mayor said: “Residents often contact me about the frequency of services.
“I am glad that rail operators are listening to passengers.”
Ian Stotesbury, the Watford councillor responsible for transport said: “We've continued to lobby for more services and I am glad to see more coming.”
