On average, 597 cleaners were working at Network Rail managed stations in the February 2017 - January 2018 period. In 2018, this number averaged 599. As Network Rail took over cleaning responsibilities for Clapham Junction, in the February 2019 - January 2020 period, the number of cleaners increased to 651.
