I would like to thank South-eastern for the new year time table which makes nearly all trains run late.

I am sure the targets that they are given will still be met this year even though they clear are not meeting them targets. Oh and if they dont, it was the cold weather and snow days that did it, not the normal, every day before and after the snow that the trains are late.

I get sick of their crappy excuses as well! if its not snow, wind, rain, leaves its congestion at London Bridge! they have the same amount of trains every day, its not like the M25 where any old bugger can get in his car / train and get in the que!

I know its usually down to a broken signal but don’t apologies in the station saying “We are sorry for the delay this morning into Cannon Street, this was due to congestion at London Bridge.”, no, no its not, its due to a broken signal, don’t bloody lie to me, its not that an extra 50 trains turned up today, its just that poor faulty not upgraded equipment keep breaking. In fact most days there are cancelled services due to train or driver shortage so they should be flying down the lines not getting bogged down.

Then there is the trains that used to run from Dartford now start at Gravesend, they have that extra bit to go! simple, it leaves earlier, no it seems that they are always 3 to 4 minutes late, so that means, leave 3 to 4 minutes earlier and if needed spend more time at each station to slow down or go slower between stations, but for god sake sort it out.

Well that’s vented and now the pain in my arse called slow, poorly serviced, shabby south-eastern trains is out in the open and free.

It will still upset me when I go home but hey, for the few hours between now and then I am happy happy happy, well, not really, but smiles, big big smiles, Smiley Smiley Carol Smiley
