damzel Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 Anyone else feel a bit disappointed? The nearest option for us is a bus from Oval. Shame it's not the Northern via Bank that they chose to include as there are loads more buses from Elephant.https://tfl.gov.uk/cdn/static/cms/images/nighttube-map.jpg Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/63553-night-tube-starting-in-september-2015-anyone-else-feel-a-bit-disappointed/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
DulwichFox Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 And the 185 does not run at night. Never understood why. so it's the 36 - 12 or 36 - 176 changing at Canberwell. Not the best place to hang around late at night.

indiepanda Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 I can see me using the Jubilee to Southwark and then hopping on the N63 - I do that to pick up the 63 at times already as it stops much closer to my house than the 185/176/40.Not that I go out late enough in central London to need a nightbus that often anyway.

Dog duck Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 Yes we know the 'Nighte Tube' is starting up and it's no use to 'us' round here. So what?! Perhaps TFL or whoever had a gander at the 'elitest' threads etc. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/63553-night-tube-starting-in-september-2015-anyone-else-feel-a-bit-disappointed/#findComment-863916 Share on other sites More sharing options...

hillcourt_jester Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 37 from Brixton. Also they're exploring the possibility of the Overground running 24 hours in the none to distant future.

BrandNewGuy Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 hillcourt_jester Wrote:-------------------------------------------------------> 37 from Brixton. Totally agree. If I'm out late in central London, the Victoria Line plus the 37 is a breeze to ED. At night, it takes about 15 mins from Brixton Ritzy to ED.

I wish London could do as other major cities do and link up bus/train travel a little more. In other cities, you pay a train/tube fare and then get free bus travel for another hour or so to complete your journey. Or you buy a bus fare and can transfer to another bus within the same period. I realise it would have been tricky to do this in the past but with Oyster/contactless cards, it surely wouldn't be that hard to take the equivalent of your bus fare off a tube fare if you'd used it within the last x minutes or ignore a bus touch-in if you were switching route.

uncleglen Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 I expect this tube strike is linked to the changes in the tube workers working conditions as they are dragged kicking and screaming into the 24 hour working day in 21st century London Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/63553-night-tube-starting-in-september-2015-anyone-else-feel-a-bit-disappointed/#findComment-870995 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zebedee Tring Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 In the same way that the Tube has ruined places like Clapham and Brixton? Or the same way that the Overground has ruined places like Shoreditch and Hoxton?I'm sure that the ED people who have had to cope with the major London Bridge, Thameslink and Elephant & Castle problems this year would love to have ED served by the Tube. In the words of a typical East Enders character, I don't believe I'm hearing this!

Bic Basher Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 If anything we should be trying to get the Overground to run overnight to Peckham Rye, Denmark Hill, Forest Hill and HOP. This will be more of a benefit for us or increasing the amount of buses on the 176 overnight.
