Morning trains from Denmark Hill

[Zippy]

If anyone is a regular commuter on the 08:04 train from Denmark Hill into London, do you ever have problems getting on the train? I've started a new job and am thinking about taking this route in future. Thanks!

I have had reports that this particular train is very busy and sometimes passengers can't get on it on Denmark Hill Peckham Rye, Nunhead.

It's usually ok if you get on towards the back of the train. Where the new bridge is, and further back.

Should be fine. A lot of people get off at Denmark Hill for the hospital. Stick to the middle or back of train.

Hey

I usually get the 8.04 and find it to be awful - hardly can get on. The very back is probably the best and the 8.19 is really really bad - try to avoid it.

I've written an extended rant in the following post about my experience of FCC trains

The 08.04 is packed.

The combination of people stood EACH SIDE of the doorways, causing everyone to file in / out in single file and the usual commuter reluctance to move down the fecking train mean you can risk being left on the platform.

Ask people to move down the train repeatedly or board at the rear of train as someone has mentioned.

I get the 07.37 or earlier trains for precisely this reason.
