    Demonstration St Pancras by Calais Migrant Solidarity

    I guess if they breached into the secure area after security search they would have been shot as they could have a bomb or be a terrorist.

    Trivia> Trivia!!

    What non-terminal station has the most platforms? Clapham Junction has 17. Reading has 15. I would not count London bridge, as though it has through lines, some of the station is a terminus.

    444/450 ASDO introduction into passenger service

    7. Also the same with 12 coaches. You can now get off from the fron 9 instead of the front 8.

    BTP media releases

    http://media.btp.police.uk/Releases/ReleaseSearchPage.aspx They make very depressive reading! The latest incident is a man who indecently assaulted a woman as she travelled between Clapham Junction and Norbury at 07:50am! I would usually expect these to had after a drunken night out but not...

    444/450 ASDO introduction into passenger service

    I have noticed a change. Not sure why it took so long when other trains have this. On SWT 444/450s there is a coach number display. Plus at Clpaham you can get off from the front 6 coaches now, instead of the front 5.

    Southern weekend first

    Very confusing. I'm sure I checked a few months ago and there was still mention of weekend 1st upgrade.

    Fastest trains

    I find that the old Mteropolitan line stock was soo slow, often pulling my hair out from Uxbridge into London!

    As an aside, I cannot use a TVM .... because I use the rail delay repay vouchers.

    Guildford Vision Group

    All the buses, including the 4/5 I use, are overpriced. £2.50 for a return is much more then any London route.

    Southern Class 377/6 1st class?

    This weekend I was on a Class 377/6 from Brigton - Victoria in 1st class. This section is in a completely different palce then the rest of the 377 fleet so took me a while to find it. It's also quite a large section compared to the usual 377s. A number of people were arguing at as it is...

    Guildford Vision Group

    Just found out about the Guildford Vision Group's masterplan for fixing transport in Guildford! I've filled out the survey and given some feedback. Mainly how hard it is to get from the station to my place of work by bus. All my colleagues travel in by car and dont understand the problems of...

    Trains and the Rugby World Cup

    I thought that only office workers would use that station, anyone else would go to Bristol parkway.

    Why was Filton Abbey Wood station busy?

    Trains and the Rugby World Cup

    I dont think SWt are offering good advice. Not all trains will be busy, surely trains from Clapham to Guildford will be normal.

    What Should a Passenger do when Witnessing Fare Evasion?

    I find that people who do not bother buying a ticket are untrustworthy in their job. I know one person who happily fudges his timesheets.

    Queuing for buses at the same stop

    Interesting, that would be very useful at certain bus stops in London where there are multiple buses that only come every 20-30 mins.

    What Should a Passenger do when Witnessing Fare Evasion?

    I think purposesely fare-dodgeing is a gateway crime, leading to drink driving, stealing office stationary etc. If I saw an employee get a fine they would not last long under my employement.
