    Thameslink core problems

    Thameslink core problems

    I like that there are other True hardy commuters that have realised when those barriers will be down and don't even bother! Some friends of mine decided to disregard my advice and listened to the staff telling them to go to Hitchin and get the "buses we've ordered" back over to Luton...

    eBay Bid Sniper Software

    Got to say gixen has to be one of the best and its a free service. If you need a backup service as well just in case of a server error they offer an upgrade for $6 a year. I bid on around 30 items per week and it has yet to fail me. I found leaving a high bid in early was left me open to...

    Overhead line problems at Radlett

    FCC do a good job at trying to keep any delay compensation down to a minimum. This year I've had to put in 8 claims for trains. With two of them I have had to argue to get my 30mins of compensation as they had the train listed as running on time, twitter of all places had to be used to prove I...

    Any idea whats going on at Farringdon?

    The Farringdon quote confused me aswell as first first sign of a problem was when the power went off as we entered St Pancras. However southbound was also lacking on trains... think we counted 6 during the whole ordeal when typically there should be one ever 4 mins
