It had better be sorted by the 17:17 tonight from Victoria as I have a dental appointment

Oh brilliant - I work in East Croydon and was hoping to get off early (back to Worthing) as it's my birthday today and it looks like it's going to be a tricky proposition now :(

"Train services between East Croydon and Purley are being disrupted due to flooding at South Croydon.
Short notice alterations, cancellations and delays of up to 70 minutes can be expected"

I'll keep an eye on the Southern site through the afternoon, but I would expect it to be sorted by your and my home times.

Hopefully cleared by the time I go home later.

I suppose you'll both need something to do while you wait. Lucky Tricky.

Setup an account on Southern Trains website and then you can pick and choose your trains in advance and choose the cheapest fare.

Assuming you are talking about Saturday, here is an example.

So £5.20 return (with a Network Railcard) in advance.

Was on my way to London, but heard there were delays of up to an hour due to burst water main at South Croydon, so got off and turned back at Haywards Heath.

Currently running replacement bus service between Three Bridges and East Croydon - no trains.

Shouldn't be too difficult to jump off at East Croydon and catch one of the many buses that go to Purley?
