Train services

Post by peterjack »

Browsing se23.com there are a number of comments/complaints about short/cancelled/overcrowded trains to London Bridge. This may or may not have something to do with the closure of the East London Line just before Christmas.

I think it's more likely to do with the ongoing inability of Southern to resolve their dispute with the union. Drivers are on an overtime ban, which affects what train stock is where (hence short trains) as well as having to take some out of the timetable/cancel them.
