Broadly yes.

Very few trains from West Croydon.

I can't see any trains to West Croydon


Trains to East Croydon from 0958 to 1558 and thence to Caterham.


During peak periods looks like you have to change at Selhurst or Crystal Palace.

The new Denmark Hill/Peckham Rye/Nunhead provisional timetable is also out. It's been badly thought through in off-peak times. Northbound there are three trains in 10 minutes (Thameslink/Victoria/Thameslink) and then a 20 minute gap. Why couldn't they be spaced with 10 minute intervals? It would mean less crowding on platforms, better transport choices for passengers and mean that there would be less likely to be issues with the signalling where the two lines merge at Nunhead if a train is running a bit late. :(


Thameslink have chosen to ignore the lobbying by the Cinderella Line, local residents, Councillors etc to have all trains running through to Kentish town and have sensible spacing. I have assumed they would slot the Victoria train in the 20 minute gap they created between the Thameslink trains, with their 10 and 20 minute spacing but no, let's cram three trains together!

      Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Leon. Very reasonably priced and called out on the same day I contacted him!

      Up the reform

      ''He caused chaos  in this country with his put down of everything British and his many dismal words about the effects of Brexit on this country.'' What utter tosh. Carney had to mitigate the effects of Brexit caused by plastic patriots like Farage. For example, immediately after the 2016 Brexit vote the BoE had to intervene fiscally by dropping interest rates and increasing QE in order to prevent the economy from taking a big hit.  They were unable to prevent the £ from crashing at the time, and it has since been worked out that the effect of that alone caused a circa £900/year hit to each UK household, which equates to the UK @ £450m/week.   There's reams of data out there that shows the economic damage Brexit has caused to the UK. Here's one looking at business investment, admittedly not very sexy but kinda important if you want to achieve economic growth. It's clear to see that prior to 2016 we had reached parity with some of our main rivals, but since then we've flatlined. All that Brexit has achieved is to win the race to the bottom. There's a reason why Farage never brought up Brexit at the last election, he knows himself it hasn't delivered on any of the promises, quite the reverse in fact.  Labour, stupidly, by saying they can make Brexit work have in effect given Farage a Get Out of Jail Free card...

      How did he "put down everything British"? Please give examples! And as for "the effects of Brexit on this country", do you think he was wrong? What exactly do you think are the positive effects of Brexit on this country?
