  • Not the worst situation in the world given the issues on the network today but I get really pissed off by the little things people do on trains.

    People that come and sit next to you on a seat and immediately pull the armrest between you up even though your arm is on it. No you fat cunt the reason. I had put that down is so that I can allow myself enough space to breathe and don't get squashed between your lardarse and the window.

    That is when fat people who take up more than one seat should be charged double. Give them a massive insentive to lose weight.
  • Delay repay submitted for today.
  • Broken down train at Lee, someone's pulled the passenger alarm at Hither Green.

    In other words the Sidcup line is f**ked.

    Probably @DaveMehmet because he wanted to get off for a dump. At least he realised this time.

  • The graffiti artists have been out overnight. The 0800 Dartford to Charing Cross.

    About to start my annual “turn the effing heating off you absolute tossers” correspondence with southeastern. Doesn’t do an iota of good. They stopped answering last year after a number of exchanges in which they proceeded to contradict themselves several times about who could or couldn’t physically turn it off (driver or remote controller) and finished with the classic denial that the scalding heat hitting my legs and sides wasnt heating at all. It is apparently air conditioning which pumps in slightly warm air on accont of having no cooling function. They referred me to the ombudsman in the end. I may well do that this year if I ever have a quiet hour. Wankers of the highest order.

    All not helped by tosser passengers who refuse to leave windows open. What is it with people and fresh air????

    Rant over. Morning all. Wearher picking up nicely for the Upbeats walk.

    agreed, much like the idiots who close the doors early whilst the train is waiting on the platform

  • Think you've got it bad? See this thread on the joys of having to rely on Southeastern's assistance when you're in a wheelchair.
  • What I don't understand is whenever I get the train up to London in the main stations all the blue jackets gather in clusters of four and simply talk, the same for the orange jackets too.
    If they are standing alone they're checking their phones.
    Is there a purpose or job description for these guys?
  • Got hit with a 6 carriage train this morning, in rush hour, with the DLR on strike... so obviously couldn't get on it.

    Looking forward to all the snotties going on holiday for Easter next week. Trains will still be delayed and lacking in carriages but at least I'll be able to be late for work in comfort.

    What is a snotty?
    Delayed response (appropriate for the thread) - "snotties" = kids.
  • The second day in a row that they've cancelled the 7.24 from Erith. It might be the tenth for all I know, because I've been driving to work recently. Only yesterday and today I've had to get the train and they're not working, which goes to show you could turn up for any advertised service and they'll be something wrong with it.
    Yesterday they told us the reason (broken train - No surprise) and they also cancelled the following one for good measure. Perhaps that was another broken train. Or perhaps they just couldn't be bothered. This morning no reason given, only advice on how to get to Woolwich. Robbery.

    I also don't understand the people wandering around in jackets proclaiming them as the "Train Presentation Team". When I get onto the platform I want them to Jump out in front of me, arms akimbo going "Ta Daaa! Heeeeeeres- Trainy".

    Alas all they seem to be interested in is picking up discarded Metros.
    Train presentation team annoy me. They pick up rubbish on the trains. I get that useful job. 2 things though wind me up. Firstly they ignore any rubbish on the platforms. Once I pointed out a pile of McDonald's rubbish a bunch of kids had left on a bench on a platform about 2 metres away from where they were standing. Their response 'we only do trains platforms are not our responsibility'. Joke.

    The second thing is more trivial but still annoying. Every day when my train gets into Victoria it's madly busy and packed to pull of people trying to get off. Yet every day the same member of train presentation crew stands directly in front of the doors and takes 5 mins to realise he should get out the way to let people off first. How useless do you have to be to not notice this and just stand to the side for a couple mins?

    Some people just want to watch the world burn
  • Charing Cross buggered up. Signalling fault apparently. Lots of Dartford trains affected, especially on the sidcup line.
  • Yep. Got to Lewisham at 19:30 and got on the delayed 18:20 via Sidcup.
  • Cunts can't get anything fucking right.

    At a conference today don't need to be there until 11. So got up and worked a couple hours this morning at home. Get to the station in time to get the 9:03 only for there to be no trains at all towards London. One train comes through with victoria on it and was scheduled to stop but carried on straight through.Train finally comes at 10:06. Wankers.

    I'm gonna be late now. Actual cunting Arseholes.

  • Properly fucking ruined my mood. And now there is a loud cow shouting down her phone right next to me.

    And there are no seats. Wankers.
  • Ohh and it's barely moved since I got on. And they've added extra stops. Fucks sake just get me to London you Arseholes.
  • The anger is seeping put of me even more than the sweat caused by their overcrowded cattle transport carriages with the fucking heating on.

    Tell her to moooove.

  • My exposure to southeastern is usually match days and so I am unable to feel your pain. Yesterday, work took me to Woolwich. Train back, early eve, still shirt only weather. Just underneath the window is a grill belting out warm air. All windows open. At Cannon St the driver came through his door so I asked him nicely if he knew the heater was on. He was very polite, says yes, but sadly there's nothing he can do about it. Said that there were sensors but in the wrong places, and open windows confused it, and it wasn't like the old trains (I think this guy had a few miles under his belt) when the guard could adjust the heating accordingly.

    So, enjoy the warmest day of the year...
  • Left my house at 8:45. Should have been where I need to be comfortably before 10. It's 10:45 and I'm still more than half an hour away. Twats.
