If I'm going to the West End of an evening, I'll sometimes drive to
Clapham Junction and park near the back entrance to the station.
Usually easy to do, as it's not a popular place to park of an evening.

I wonder why that is ?

It's not a residential area, and not close to restaurants, etc. Plenty
will use it during the day, but easy to park there at that time of the
early evening.

So not convient for most if using the car for getting to and from work.
Residents would like to charge thier car pretty close to where they live in a residenttaiol area, telling them there's plenty of 2 miles away isn't much use.
