The Department for Transport is planning to undertake a nationwide project aimed at collecting origin-destination information on rail passengers. Additionally, Network Rail and Transport for London (TfL) have recently conducted research which looked at origin-destination patterns for passengers using some of the largest Central London termini (including Euston).
A published report on the research conducted by TfL and Network Rail is available here:
