Moderator note: Split from https://www.railforums.co.uk/threads/may-2025-timetable-change-confirmed-changes-only.278309/ Good news for local passengers too, However, it leaves the oddness of 2O96, 22:36 from Reading still terminating at Shalford, leaving the 2-hour gap in service from...

Moderator note: Split from https://www.railforums.co.uk/threads/planned-387-and-377-cascades-to-southern-and-southeastern-in-2025.277465/ Would a 377/6 fit into Reigate - I thought that the station was limited to just 80m trains without going across the level crossing.

Really odd today - I was on 9R23 (Three Bridges - Bedford) heading into London at London Bridge and noticed a parallel Thameslink Train going through platform 8 non-stop, it was 9S26 (Brighton to Cambridge). We were signalled to a stop just after London Bridge to let it cross and go up to...

There is a week long closure of the North Downs full line from Reading to Gatwick. This is because there are track and signalling renewals at Wokingham. However as far as I can see (happy to be informed if wrong) there is no major work between Guildford, Dorking, Reigate, Redhill and Gatwick...

It’s been flagged across several threads that there will be a major change to Southern Metro Services from Sunday Sept 4th which is appearing in RealTimeTrains. It is just 6 weeks away, however as of yet Southern have not announced it to Passengers or Stakeholders. Will it be happening or will...

mods note, split from this thread:https://www.railforums.co.uk/threads/class-379%E2%80%99s-departure-from-greater-anglia.226784/ If GTR is about to cut it's services by 20% (as said elsewhere is apparently the Treasury's wish), which will probably result in reduction of fleet size. The...

More disruption next week - GTR has just announced that they will be running a reduced timetable with no Victoria services to 10th January

Reported on Southern Website - any idea what has happened? 1613120180 Southern have also highlighted the two trains in this screen grab

Apparently there is disruption at Tonbridge this morning due to a derailment at Jubilee Sidings. Any details out there. Last year there was a similar Derailment at Redhill Carriage Sidings - is there a local problem with carriage sidings or just coincidence?

I was reading about an abortive proposal to build a South of London Orbital railway and suddenly realised there is one already there that probably just needs right equipment to set up. There are services from Strood to Paddock Wood via Maidstone extended to Tonbridge part of the day. Then...

Just heard Fire Brigade called to a 377 which caught fire on arrival at Redhill (forming 07:04 Victoria from Redhill 1C 51). Anyone know what has happened

Many Southern Passengers use "Southern only" tickets because they are cheaper, but on Monday some services are being taken over by Thameslink whose tickets aren't as viable forcing passengers to swap to "Any Permitted" tickets which are 15%+ more expensive. This is on top of the massive...

Everything is stopped - Security Alert - any further details available

Southern have just given notice that late night trains from Victoria will be axed from 17th May. Last train will depart at 00:07 to Eastbourne. Why Eastbourne I have no idea. Late night services on suburban stations and along the Redhill line are just abandoned. Whilst the axing of services is...

At the GTR stakeholders forum today they announced that the Thameslink plan is being discussed with the DFT and there are planned changes. Highlights were:- 4 trains per hour along the Catford loop - 2 to Sevenoaks and 2 to Orpington Peak Maidstone East service to become all day and...

Not sure if this type of question has been covered before and if it has please direct me. It's the principle I am trying to understand not the specifics. I have noticed that at my local ticket office (Redhill) they are selling weekly season tickets for London Bridge as London Terminals to...

I've noted that recently along the Brighton main line that National Rail Enquiries have stopped providing platform information. As someone who uses East Croydon a lot (the station with no useful passenger information) this has massively increased the stress of changing trains or finding your...

There were delays last night (11/08) due to lack of trains and again this morning (12/08) severe delays for the same reason. Is there any explanation for this - are the "S" stock causing problems?

In the December 2015 timetable proposals the Redhill Route would be getting some major changes off-peak with same number of trains but different patterns. One of the changes is that Thameslink will provide a new service from Three Bridges to Bedford calling at Redhill, Merstham, Coulsdon...

Reading that the new Great Western Franchise requires the operator to look at North Downs services using Battery-electric stock made me wonder why they couldn't run a London Bridge to Guildford service via Redhill along the North Downs utilising Battery-Electric stock replacing the FGW slows...
