Thameslink ran 24hours a day! But this is funny!

Well done FCC for trying to sort the overcrowding ;)

I think most TOC's run this kind of system to allow for trains that run past midnight. Otherwise they'd need to operate two services, one finishing at 23:59 and a second starting up at 00:00.

Reminds me of (lost pic) "Coach number 9 of 8".

South Eastern's way to increase capacity...

Yeah that's it.

Weird how the train knows it's coach 9 but hasn't sussed the length...

I wonder why new trains still don't get divisions right.
