Haha yeah, I thought it was an easy username when I signed up for the forums ages ago but now realise it might be a bit confusing :lol:

Thanks both :)

Found myself in a bit of pickle travelling home late on Saturday night/Sunday morning from Stratford to Grays. I was hoping to catch the 00:38 and change for the connecting shuttle at 01:01. Unfortunately this train was cancelled. I tried asking two TfL members of staff at Stratford platform 8...

Thanks for the information all! Ah I see, so that’s why the Ockendon services become shuttles when there are engineering works past Leigh? As there isn’t enough available stock from East Ham?

Just fallen victim to some more timetabling quirks from c2c. Sat at Limehouse waiting for the 00:19 to Grays and lo and behold another train passes through to Grays without stopping at 00:06. What could possibly explain not running the last trains of the day as all stations services...

Thanks for sharing! So I guess the additional faulty train mentioned by TfL seems to be what’s been causing the problems today?

The Jubilee has been operating with severe delays since this morning. The “earlier faulty train at Waterloo” which caused the initial delays was cleared well before noon - surely this isn’t the reason for the continuing delay? Just curious as to what the issues are - my train home this evening...

Will the interiors at least be getting a deep clean or is that not in the scope either?

Ahhh I see... definitely an extreme scenario.

Not to take this off topic but in deep level tube tunnel situations, what problems would opening the doors alleviate instead of worsen? Would this only be in the case of a severe fire that requires smoke to be vented out of passenger areas?

Oops! I just had a quick look at arrivals at Fenchurch Street this morning but clearly did something wrong!

From a quick look at RTT, it doesn't seem like the 720s have been out and about recently? Still some integration stuff to work out?

Thanks for your help! A bit of detail I missed out, the 1711 TPE service was cancelled from Sheffield but was supposed to start at Meadowhall at 1717. After travelling to Meadowhall it was also cancelled from there. I spoke to Northern staff at Meadowhall who told me to get a replacement bus or...

Hi Sorry in advance for the long post! I had to make a last minute trip from Sheffield to London and found a cheap ticket from Doncaster on Hull Trains (£10 with railcard discount!). I then purchased an anytime single from Sheffield to Doncaster for £3ish. My plan was to catch the 18:04 Hull...

Thanks!
