Yes, normal being a couple of minutes late - of course (excluding the planned work).

Those same trains are running to/from Brighton - hourly service. Buses every 15 mins - 4 fast buses and 4 stopping an hour.

What a great word, it ought to mean something. My vote is for a problem where everyone argues as to who is to blame for it.

That was my bad, typing on my phone with fat fingers!!! It should have said disruption!! It sounds like a real word though, you could probably fit it into a conversation and people wouldn't even register it isn't really a word.

So I can still get the train down from Burgess Hill then? just via Hove......and the same on the way back up unless I go via Lewes and up to Wivelsfield.

Brilliant
