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.

    • For every person like OP that moans their doorbell was rung and there was a knock on the door, there's someone else moaning that they didn't hear the delivery drivers. If you've ever done delivery work you'll know that loads of people's bells don't work. The delivery drivers probably goes to a hundred doors a day: press bell, knock door, drop package, move on. If you don't like delivery drivers, insist on delivery by Royal Mail where the workers have wages and a union - or just stop ordering shit online that's artificially cheap. But most of us (me included) don't want that
    • If someone comes to my house and bangs my door and slams my gate, I'd speak to them about it nicely and ask if they would please not do that. And then subsequently less nicely if they keep doing it, ending in reporting them.  We don't slam doors at home and I don't put up with that either. I can see us moving to a culture where we bribe drivers to be nice by tipping them, but we shouldn't have to. It's not necessary - does not matter if they are on minimum wage or not, or if society means that delivery services are outsourced or whatever reason anyone would like to concoct.     
    • We’ve got a gap on the roof of our shed that needs patching  don’t want to buy a huge roll so hoping someone has some leftover  happy to collect/reimburse 
    • I never said I thought it was targeted or deliberate. There also has never been a “stand off” or confrontation, we’ve spoken to them in a friendly manner about it. Our experience is they don’t seem to care. That’s the frustrating thing for us, if someone politely raises a concern at least take a second to reflect. Treat others how you would want to be treated.  I don’t want them to lose their job, far from it. But considering it could cost me a days work to fix any damage, I’m within my right to try prevent it.
