Trains and other transport running this morning? [The TravelWatch in the Snow Official thread]


Recommended Posts

National Rail site is useful.

Its not. You get crazy things like 'No Report' Then look at train progress and see it is canceled at some stations and not at others. Bonkers.


It is usually useful - when there isnt a problem

Came in this morning, roads were pretty clear and even DKH not proving difficult for the buses. But there didn't seem to be that many buses coming through, and because there are no trains, the ones that did make it were full to the brim and not letting more passengers on. Still, had a lovely stroll up through Burgess Park, hopped on a 363 the other side to LB and then walked up to Liverpool Street, stopping off for a Taylor St coffee on the way. All in, took around an hour and a half but much more pleasant than the normal scrum on the trains!

As Barry mentioned in the station manager thread, there are services tomorrow from ED and Peckham Rye. A London Bridge to London Bridge circular via Forest Hill and Crystal Palace running every 30 mins.


In addition, Southern will run 4tph from Forest Hill and Honor Oak Park to London Bridge, 2 of those will go to East Croydon in the opposite direction, with the other going to LB via Crystal Palace.

I've seen a northbound train at 11.44, and a southbound one at 11.55, which was in accord with the NR live departures page (though that was a bit slow in upddating the latter from 5 min late to 10 min late). It's currently, in its window to 13.45, showing departures at 14/15 and 44/45 min past the thour, all 'On time'.

LL at a standstill southbound (up the hill towards the library). Crawling northbound (towards Goose Green). Have just seen a 176 going to TCR if that helps.


Got off a 12 which did go all the way to Dulwich Library about half an hour ago but Barry Road was slow-moving and slippy.

Had to abandon a trip to DKH Sainsburys after getting stuck in traffic by Heber Road.


12 and 197 are running normally. P13 is diverted along Lordship Lane and not running along Waverley or Underhill Road.

    • Its that time of year again, past Christmas day and late delayed cards are turning up. How late are your cards arriving ?  Last year I had one delivered 4 weeks late. Can that be beaten this year ? 
    • Sadly, a lot of businesses didn't invite reviews on the EDF at that time due to a number of "negative nellies" that would take delight in posting unfavourable comments, often despite never being to the business in question.  No matter how good the place was, some posters would find fault that wasn't there "don't lile the colour of the bidet set in the private bathroom, avocado 😅" Can hardly blame businesses at the time for not wanting reviews on here, thankfully that has mostly changed now.   
    • Was that the Hare Krishna place? I can't remember exactly where it was (or maybe still is) but it was somewhere around Oxford Street.
    • The "for sale" section on this forum lets people offer things for free or cheaply. And the "wanted" section let's people ask for things they want or need, for free or cheaply. There are also existing schemes like Freecycle, and also local  food banks. And there is (or was) a local scheme where you can bring things to be repaired free. I think it is/was based in Nunhead. Isn't that simpler than having a barter system? You might have something to give away, but the person who wants it might not have anything you want. Or have I misunderstood how it works? I can see that offering services free might not fit into existing schemes, but depending on what they were, what would happen if things went horribly wrong eg someone wrecked your house? Sorry if the above sounds very negative.
