Does anyone get the train from Peckham Rye/Denmark Hill which goes to E&C, Blackfriars, City Thameslink, Farringdon, St Pancs and get a good phone signal on the way?


Mine is very flaky and I certainly don't get any signal from City Thameslink to St Pancras (except for a short window at Farringdon). But, I still see people using their phones, either surfing or even taking a call... Is anyone else able to do this?

Hello!


I do that route every morning! The service is good from Peckham Rye (no service going through Denmark hill tunnel and sometimes flaky at the actual station), all the way until you enter into City Thameslink, then no service until the second set of escalators when leaving St Pancras station!!


I usually listen to the radio, when there is no service, i'm checking my emails which have downloaded to my phone...I suspect people are doing the smae or watching video content or playing games.... I've not really seen people taking calls though.

If the inanities I'm usually subjected to reached these dizzy heights I don't think I'd mind so much. Did they give marks out of ten?

Hi OD - thanks for removing some of the mystery. I have seen people speaking on their phones in City Thameslink station which I've always found odd. Can you listen to the radio with no signal? What app do you use? I'd love to get 6 music in the mornings. I mainly use the time between blackfriars and st pancras reading all the tweets from my feed in the last few hours, which is useful for my work.


E-dealer - I know exactly what you mean ;-)

    • Is that not only true within certain hours? I just did a quick Google and this came up (not specifically Southwark): The Noise Act 1996 defines "night hours" as 11 pm to 7 am, and local councils can take action if noise levels are excessive during this time. This means they can issue warning notices or even investigate for a statutory nuisance if the noise is particularly disruptive, according to Gov.uk.  I'm sure it's more complicated than that, and I'm sure it's been discussed on here before, though I can't remember which thread.
    • Get on those waiting lists asap if you haven't already. I waited till after the birth and it was very challenging getting a place once our daughter turned 1.  She ended up at LEYF Camberwell (we had to accept 2 days to start and gradually got to ramp up 5 days). She absolutely loved it there after an initial shaky start but her key worker and team worked really hard to settle her in. They spent a lot of time giving her cuddles and making her feel safe. Great outdoor space and really caring, enthusiastic staff with low turnover. Would highly recommend. 
    • We are expecting a baby in a few months, and have heard about the epic waiting lists for nurseries in the area... We have been to look around, and are considering, LEYF Camberwell, N Family Club Camberwell and Purple Jay Herne Hill. Would love to hear any feedback from experienced parents!
    • Most of the shops in LL have too small a footprint. That's why we have so few chains. That won't change quickly.
