    Class 387

    So roughly when is it intended that all 387's are in service by? When will the first delivery of 700's come into service? When is it intended that all 319's will be gone elsewhere?

    Class 387

    I'm starting to get a bit lost with this thread and the one on 319 cascade to Northern! In summary when will Thameslink services all be covered by 377's and / or 387's or is that not going to happen before the 700's start coming into service?

    Gatwick Express on SE side of London Victoria 25th April 2014

    I was very surprised to see a Gatwick Express arrival and departure using platform 6 on the SE side of London Victoria yesterday 25th April between 2pm and 2-30pm. In RT they show as 1U77 and 1D86. Anyone know what was going on.

    East Croydon new bridge?

    Are there some modifications now being made to the footbridge at East Croydon? The "down" facing side never seems to have been used and I wonder if this was originally intended for retail outlets. The construction work on the platforms seems to be taking for ever and not really quite sure...

    London Bridge redevelopment

    Thank you all for this information. Will any of this development relieve the current conflict of FCC services having to cross over from the Southern side to SE and then again to cross over the down lines from Charring Cross in order to access Blackfriars. It seems strange that some...

    London Bridge redevelopment

    When the redevelopment of London Bridge is complete are both the terminus and through platforms all going to be on the same level? I gather that platform access is all going to be from below so a bit confused as to how this is going to be achieved? Are there any detailed documents with artist...

    East Croydon new bridge?

    I think the subway is actually still there it's just the ramps leading down to it that have been filled in. The lift (when working) on platforms 5 and 6 when being manually controlled with a key does go down to the subway. I ended up down there by mistake just before Christmas. It seems that if...

    East Croydon new bridge?

    This bridge is simply not practical especially in wet weather. The lifts have not worked since they were flooded at Christmas and as mentioned previously the steps face the wrong way. The individual departure displays for each platform did not initially have a platform number printed on them and...
