I have seen a S stock at Edgware Road sidings for a few days this week and it has been making a hissing sound. Any idea what is going on?

In a Gatwick Express now the OBS has just said to someone “that ticket is not valid for this train, if there were revenue protection onboard you would be charged £100” then the OBS carried on with their walk through

A few years ago they did do a seperate Haywards Heath to Brighton combined table which was rather useful. This was after a request was made

By way of an update. At Newport at least. There is a barriered queue with a ticket inspection by TfW staff, I asked if they could activate the contactless and he said yes. Not sure if he answered the question I meant though. The boarding seems quite well organised albeit not running to the...

And zero action other taken from after the Waterloo death

This was the most recent Gatwick Express thread I could find. Today’s OBS has just made an announcement that if do not hold “the correct Gatwick express ticket” and said that Thameslink and Southern only are not permitted, would have to buy a Brand new ticket or a penalty fare of £100...

A failure has reoccurred this evening. Staff telling passengers for three bridges to get replacement buses, there were no replacement buses. What was noticeable is that there was no one in overall charge. You would think that given the problems earlier, there would be some familiarity with...

I’ve been in or seen quite a few 700 recently where the front first class has been locked both inside and the outside doors show as door not in use. At a time I was by one to a terminus to see if it was the opened up again.
