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


Recommended Posts

I got in around 3.30. At that point, the 185/176 were being diverted to go through Peckham rather than up DKH. They were then coming along LL and all the way up to the Horniman. It was a long and slow diversion through Peckham though so if you're trying to get to town (and really really NEED to go), it might be quicker to walk to Brixton and hop on the Tube.

Bus routes tonight that are curtailed or diverted in the SE22 area (data from the TfL website)


176: Tottenham Court Road to Camberwell only.


63: Kings Cross to Peckham Rye.


363: Elephant to Honor Oak.


P4: Diverted away from Honor Oak.


BBC London 94.9 also reports that buses in our area will finish earlier tonight than normal.

After being told by a 40 bus driver there were no buses going down DKH, I alighted at Camberwell Green, hailed a black taxi which then sailed past a 176 going down DKH ! Neither taxi or bus had any problems going down the hill.

Well for what it's worth ,when I was driving last night at 9.30 the main roads were perfectly driveable .

In the main I stuck to bus routes ,but Court Lane ,Eynella etc were all fine .

It didn't actually seem that cold and the gritted roads weren't freezing .

Not much help I know to this mornings debate .

Just drove back from Brighton. Roads are all driveable, but of course there are icy and snowy patches, so don't drive unless it's essential. Buses are running (I saw a 176 and a 185 along LL).
Not many of the London Bridge trains are running but the half hourly Sevenoaks to Victoria (stopping at Peckham Rye and Denmark Hill) is running fine and on time. I've used it to go into town and back today.

    • I've used just about all the locally available supermarkets for deliveries over the years, and I now  use Waitrose for deliveries, for various reasons. They have a good range of the things I eat, their food is good quality and their "essentials" range is generally good value (except the tissues, which suddenly became so thin as to disintegrate immediately. I was mainly buying them for the nice plain boxes, so now I just put other tissues into the old Waitrose boxes 🤣) It is very rare for something I've ordered to not be available on the day. Their delivery drivers  are genuinely friendly and helpful. Their customer service is very good. On the rare occasions I've had issues, they have refunded me without quibbling. They often have special deals on some of the things I buy often, so I stock up when they are cheaper. I do occasionally compare prices with other supermarkets, and overall I really don't think Waitrose is more expensive, but obviously they might be for things I don't personally buy. I absolutely hate Sainsbury's, would use Lidl for some things but they don't deliver, Iceland has a very small range of things I eat, and I can't remember why I don't use Tesco or Asda any more. I recently checked out Ocado because there was some offer which seemed good value, but they just didn't have enough things I wanted to buy to make it worth using the offer. M&S don't deliver ( to the best of my knowledge) but in any case they seem to be still badly suffering from the recent hack into their system. Apologies, I have just remembered this thread is about shopping at actual physical stores, but probably many of the issues are the same.
    • Since I am of a certain vintage now, not sure if what I am going to suggest is even still around but here goes… use to be able to buy “dummy/mock papers on line and also had mini synopsis of Shakespeare plays specifically covering students wanting to gain a better understanding of play before taking mocks/ exams. Only know this as many many moons ago, struggled with English Literature and Language and this was the avenue-my parents went down. Also was at this point in my life, educated abroad as part of my fathers job.  
    • Love your comment about “shoehorned” - put a smile on my face..! As for comment about “Little Waitrose” ummmm - never really thought about it. Personally, could not care less. But guess Sainsbury Local and Tesco Express are to you more acceptable.. Ultimately, when I think about it, I actually don’t care what they call themselves - been lured by partially branding and partially convenience and what they offer in groceries.
