The lack of coach links probably pushes more people towards the train than other airports where there is more alternatives.
That would make sense, I forgot about LCY. I wonder if there is a difference in public transport use by Frequent Flyers, Short Haul, Long Haul, IT Charter and LCC passengers. I can see multiple ways to argue who would be more likely to use a given mode of transport. My guess is that single travellers are more likely to use public transport and families of 3+ less likely to use public transport, because fares mount up, when charged per-person. Parking and Taxis are more competitive as the party size increases.
