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.

    • Missing Cat! 11 months old/ Our friend, Coco, has gone missing. Last seen evening of 31st October near top of Henslowe rd where it meets Underhill Rd in SE22. We know she has started wandering up Friern Rd and further we guess but we imagine she has been spooked by Halloween / Fireworks goings on. She is a grey Siberian mix with some brown stripes down her, very friendly and likes to eat. Please let us know
    • That said, organised displays could be on Saturday before and after and the actual day, and private ones could just not have the loud ones.  It’s all down to accessibility and people caring/not caring
    • The problem this year is that 5th November falls on a Wednesday. So some places will be bringing their "bonfire night" forward to Saturday 1st and some will be knocking it back to Saturday 8th and there'll probably be a few that just go with Wednesday 5th anyway. If you're doing a public display, having it on a weekend gets more crowds. Which basically means a solid week of fireworks.
    • Fireworks in this area do feel totally incessant at this time of year, almost every evening there is terrible noise. I feel great concern for wildlife, pets (I have a senior cat who hates them), as well as people who struggle with PTSD etc. Last year I even had people setting them off in front of my home. Tonight and yesterday evening have been particularly bad. Is there anything we can do as a community to prevent this? What action can we take? Surely we shouldn’t be expected to just put up with it every year for weeks on end!
