minder Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 Posted a message an hour ago but seems to have gone astray - sister informed me Dulwich Hamlet is closed - my youngest is there so oh well - but what about all the parents who have just gone back this week and then find themselves unable to work? I'm lucky in that I'm a registered childminder so work from home (ha ha) with two older ones at The Charter that's not to be decided to their delight until tomorrow!Government wants all parents with kids aged 10 back to work - how's that supposed to happen in situations like this?

SMBJones Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 Good morning Trains are running on a revised timetable, there are quite a few cancellations on Sussex routes, however Metro will run a normal service but subject to a few delays I am afraid it is pretty much as yesterday. Please check the southern website and the journey check pageBarry Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/9407-weather-issues-in-east-dulwich-schools-transport/page/7/#findComment-282697 Share on other sites More sharing options...

phillyboy Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 Yes the 06.12 from ED was cancelled - it was nice to see a nearly empty Southern train trundling through ED station on its way to London Bridge at 06:10. Busses however were working really well Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/9407-weather-issues-in-east-dulwich-schools-transport/page/7/#findComment-282704 Share on other sites More sharing options...

jollybaby Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 Yes Barry I couldn't find the necessary info on the Southern Website (may have been looking in wrong spot). When tried to look at live departures/journey check all it would tell me was that the services hadn't started as yet.

Peckham native Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 Just got into work at London Bridge. The 7:14 from East Dulwich was spot on time and looked like the next few trains would be okay. The worst part was the pavements. Very icy outside the station and garden centre. The ramp up to the station wasn't too bad.Tried to look up my trains on Southern website before I left but came up with an apology that there were no live train times.Three no 40 buses waiting on Grove Vale, not sure why as Dog Kennel Hill looked fine. Saw a 185 coming down the hill.

Peckwich Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 363s seem to be going though ED okay. A few 63s stuck in bus lane by Wood Vale around 6:30am so not sure if they are currently sending them up Forest Hill Rd.
