I wasn't suggesting an additional service, just an alteration to the timings of the existing service(s) so that at least one train can do fewer stops. If Billericay, Wickford, Rayleigh, Hockley & Rochford were avoided, then the service would be faster and thus more appealing, no...?!
Possibly for some. But not if your destination is one of the stations mentioned. But people have never flocked to STN over SEN because they can shave a few minutes off a train journey (lost anyway in their journey to and from the platform) They go there for reasons that are only too obvious.
