    Overground/Crossrail takeover of Greater Anglia inners

    Not a good evening on the GEML thanks to 90016, Stratford was chaos! The extra TfL staff making people move down inside and to stand clear of the doors really make a difference at Stratford - It's a shame that it was spoilt by someone being rather over the top announcing people to move down...

    Overground/Crossrail takeover of Greater Anglia inners

    Got held at Maryland on the way home because of "Signalling Issue", It's the first time in what must be 3 years I've heard a driver use the PA on a 315! Liking the extra presence of staff at Stratford making sure people move down inside as well :D

    Overground/Crossrail takeover of Greater Anglia inners

    The 317 just doesn't look right - I think if the skirt colours were lower down it'd be perfect!

    C Stock

    No idea, The trains were not even on the right workings on Monday to get them in the right places for yesterday (Even before the loss of all signalling around Earl's Court) for the scrap trains etc. The last train could of quite easily ran until the last run and ran to Hammersmith then, The...

    C Stock

    The exam's do not work on mileage as there is no mile counters on the C's, It works on a date basis so even if it was down to it running out of it's exam - It could of finished at 09:30 or at 23:00 and it'd still be in exam.
