Of course the incident was out of their control, but Southerns response to this morning was as inept as I'f expect for them.

Network Rail reporting that the water table is so high just north of Brighton that it is in danger of swamping the line and cutting off the Brighton/london main line

Just saw this on BBC News. The reporter said it could happen by the end of the week.
I'll just pull up a chair & wait for the impending binfest

Hmm, Beachy is WFH, someone else got terminated at East Croydon, and there have been mentions of delay repay and Gatwick Express. Hawk's trying to decide whether to justify it or sympathise. And now this.
HOUSE!

Cmon - we've not had a pic of a teenager taking up 5 seats whilst using his phone, eating a burger and playing an iPod yet. That call was too early, but it won't be long.

Or a suitcase on a seat which hasnt got a ticket - far off a full house.

May as well stick it here - but if your a Rail Season Ticket holder (All Types) on the Oxted lines (to/from East Grinstead or Uckfield) then Southern will be giving a "gesture" to you as an apology for the disruption, even though it isnt actually their fault.
No, the gesture isnt going to be 2 fingers up at you either.
Expect the same if the Mainline floods for a few days, which it probably will.

I wonder if they'll try and send us via Bristol or Hereford like they did when the tunnel flooded?
I just can't wait...
If I had a pound for everytime you stated it was not the railway's fault I'd probably have enough lolly to actualy be able to afford to travel on it.

Berlin got cut off from West Germany for months last summer so Herr Tubby won't be able to moan too much if Brighton is cut off from London
Psychobilly freakout

Seen the Meteors yet ?
It got cut off for about 40 years as I recall
1961 was not last summer. What you on about?
Nah, it's not until September. I have plenty of other stuff lined up until then though.

That's given me a great idea...the Brighton Airlift, 2014. We could have supplies flown in by NATO.
