Another day of commuting misery - new sink hole at Forest Hill

[Monkey]

I've just been turned away from Honor Oak station. No trains due to new sink hole. Staff were pessimistic re; resuming service soon.

Worst things is the news reports that this bloody hole is "30cm". It's not exactly an avalanche on the line.

Would you drive a 200 tonne train with up to 1000 passengers at 90mph over a 1 foot pothole? With no knowledge of the cause?

"yes ony 30cm, we decided it wasn't a risk....." you can hear the H&S screams and insurance claims from here.....

sometimes caution is a good thing.
