They've been replaced, by signal/point/power supply failures, faulty trains and 'operational incidents'.

I've no idea how ABC have had the will to carry on in the face of such obdurate opposition from the shysters at the DfT, their work is just amazing.

I do know people who have, but i have yet to receive mine. All a bit of a shambles, apparently they are putting a page next week where you can apply yourself.

The commuters are finally set for their day in court. The final grounds for the judicial review of the DfT misconduct have been submitted today. https://www.theguardian.com/business/2017/feb/01/southern-rail-commuters-launch-legal-claim-department-for-transport?CMP=twt_gu

Who knows? If the OT ban is also suspended then there would be no reason not resume those services. However I shall believe it when i see it.

No.

Cut short my night out in London for a trip home via Thameslink this evening. Do not trust Victoria as far as i could throw it. This outrageous situation is difficult to comprehend. There is a lack of overtime yet Southern have used that as an excuse to pretty much cancel every London service...

A lot of tory voters to the east seem to be voicing their concerns, I could see Lewes and Eastbourne return to the Lib Dems at this rate and at least Maria Caulfield in Lewes is actively trying to do something as a result. Stunned at the indifference of West and Mid Sussex tory MPs whose...

Grayling now outed as playing party politics with railways by a fellow Conservative over the transfer of Suburban rail to the London Mayor and TfL. Demonstrating the lie that he puts 'passengers at the heart of delivery'. Story here

I do not envy those who have to make the trip from London. I've got the day off to avoid it. What an utter sh*tstorm this is. I agree with those who think the club should say we can only have televised games at the weekend until the travel situation is sorted out. Any repeat of the Villa debacle...

The situation on friday is normal service (hence the panic!) . Not a strike day but we have no idea what effect any missed overtime may have on the trains. No trains between Lewes and Seaford.

The travel advice is that it is Thameslink or nothing from Brighton. Gatwick Express running between Gatwick and Victoria if that is an option.

Sadly this is true.

The DOO Thameslink services seem to be deficient in the D dept today. Typical. Sadly Grayling and maynard are completely washing their hands of this and there appears to be nothing anyone can do about it. It is utterly maddening. As for friday, I have the day off to make sure I get to the game...

The 7.12 was fine, dropped me off at Gatwick 3 minutes early.

Grayling now promoting privatised monopolies whereby the the ToC's takeover tracks as well as the trian. Pretty sure the government motivation is out there for all to see. The idea that Grayling wants to put "Passengers at the heart of delivery" is total nonsense. Passengers now in a position to...

Looking forward to the trip home tonight! Should be epic......FFS!

Punctual trains across GTR today 60%. TL Brighton 49% Southern mainline 40% Gatwick Express 63% Coastway 67%. Not even close to being an acceptable service, how they are still running this 'franchise' is beyond me. Train info source Who needs a strike day to run a crap service?

Permanent staff shortage due to not having enough staff. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

In addition to that I have noticed with more frequency that the DOO GE trains have become more faulty with cameras not working that mean stops get missed out and whatever the train position locator thingy (as I believe it is known) also being faulty resulting in the doors not opening and the...
