It seems every time I try on a Sunday to get the train, its either the bus replacement or cancelled completely. The last time I got the train successfully for my 15 min journey was December! Understandably, works need to be done over the weekends but surely not most weekends.......

Trains are normally every 15 mins on Sunday from ED, however the services via Streatham Common are cancelled due to engineering works.

Not only were they only running every half hour on Saturday, but the train times given on the website were wrong.


I turned up in plenty of time to get the 1.18, only to find that the trains were actually at 1.04 and 1.34, and I had just missed the 1.04.


I had to get a bus to the Elephant and then pick up the Northern Line from there. Only just made it to my class in Camden. GRRRRR.

In the last 4 recorded years (between 07/08 and 11/12 ), the number of travellers getting on or off a train at East Dulwich station has increased from 1,360,087 to 2,085,892. It would be good if this exponential growth in traveller numbers could somehow be reflected in the number of trains provided.

That's just not true, they are still every 10 mins in morning/evening rush hour and every 15 mins in the evenings.


But yes of course the weekend service is abysmal and we're all sick of the bloody rail replacement bus service. But that's not the same as "the net gain is nought".

    • Yes, we have a Casio CT-S100 we no longer need, except I dont think we have the headphones any more. It has a USB connection. £50? https://www.argos.co.uk/product/7333639
    • Thank you! She is both spayed and microchipped, and reported missing on Petlog and with the vets.   She normally never goes out the front, certainly for never more than 10-15 minutes, so this is definitely new territory for her. There is lots of dense foliage across the road so there are plenty of places she could be hiding if she is spooked, so we are hoping she will come back when she is calm. The weather isn't helping, she never goes out in the rain. Thank you again!
    • Hi, Have you been letting her out the front door onto the street or would this be a first & therefore unfamiliar with the area? Does she respond to a name & is she spayed & microchipped? Our team carry scanners on our daily routes & will of course be looking our for her. I hope you are reunited with her soon. If not already, notify your street & surrounding streets (find out if they have Whatsapp groups) Dox will print & deliver free missing posters https://www.doxdirect.com/help/free-missing-pet-posters/ Call her at dusk & dawn when street & foot traffic is at its lowest.

    • A slightly delayed review but another one to echo Niko's praises. I had an issue with a cistern that needed replacing and Niko was attentive and did a great job. He was very diligent, explained what he was doing and fixed issues from a previous plumber's work. I will definitely ask for his help again if I have any issues in the future.
