We are content by all accounts with a garbage service. Plus with privitisation, profits must come first as the priority.

There has only been one day so far, when it was less than 5 mins, the 4 minute one. Dire really. Thank god I work in public sector with flexible working. Otherwise given the unreliabilty of the Southern service, I could have been sacked by now.

Still not had a train get me on time to work yet in 2014. 4 minutes late is Southern's best so far.

I was on the Littlehampton train that stopped at Preston Park whilst yours was due to leave. Pity they did not let any of you guys on our train.

I have yet to have an on time train on the way to work so far this year. The best Southern managed was 7 minutes late. Still it is not all bad. Had 3 delay repay returns in last few days. Just a dozen or so more due to come.

So far, 3 days commuting. Total aggregate of 88 minutes delays. Really good value for money. Such a fair deal.

No. It is getting worse each year. Cant see it ever improving.

I have got delay repay for 3 out of 4 journeys (an acceptable 20 minute delay home tonight) so far in 2014. I have got so many delay repays running I have lost track on how much I am due to be refunded.

Fair play. We will just agree to disagree. Nothing to get in a barney over.

Well the cretins in charge now are hardly doing a better job.

Southwest trains have similar circumstances and seem more more reliable. I agree though. There is too much capacity. Instead of HS2 we could have doubled up lines from Brighton to 3 Bridges, reopening of Lewes Uckfield line and maybe all the tracks lowered to install double decker trains...

I am counting a log of commuting this year on trains. So far 45 minutes of my time wasted. I am thinking in excess of 24 hours by the years end.

This weather is certainly not the fault of the rail companies, but it just adds to the countless other times of poor service across the year that gets me. The service was more reliable (and better value for money) before privitisation. No point having so called fancy new trains, if the...

Power supply problems now at Littlehampton.

There are delays at the moment. Object on the tracks south of Haywards Heath. Probably a small twig now causing chaos.

They do not deserve that 3p

Thats true, but then again energy companies, well arent profits more important than reliable service? The joys of privitasation.

Do any other firms suffer as many difficulties with power supply issues? Why are signals failing week after week? Clearly they are not doing something right.

I have never known such an inept organisation as Network Rail. Do they not maintain signals? Any of their employees use this site and want to defend their organsation?

Absolute joke isnt it. First day back and already shocking failures.
