It's just a covert government tactic to turn us against each other rather than focusing our hatred on the train companies and the government officials who sanction their shitness. Where's the article about "Most irritating Minister for Transport" or "Most dilapidated train on the UK rail network" or "Most pathetic excuse for your train being delayed, cancelled or hideously overcrowded".
Correct but all those actions are reprehensible.
The commute would be much more bearable if the people innthe trains weren't cunts.

You know what mate, I hear thee. I can completely appreciate how the c**tiness can set in though. If I have to do 3 trips up town or god forbid more than that, a week.
Day 1, Oh this isn't so bad. So what the train from Chatham is already packed at 6.37 and I need to stand the entire journey in, I'm a young man. "isn't that charming a woman doing her makeup and spraying cheap perfume over herself, she obviously cares"
I'll give way to these people rushing about and I'll apologise when someone stops dead in front of me for no apparent reason, everyone gets forgetful time to time
Day 2 I hope I get a seat, actually, do I want one next to some entitled prick whose spread their belongings across 2 seats in the hope of a solo journey, it's ok I'll stand. Next to a farting, odour hub of a creature
Day 3 by 6.30am I am ready to plant the nut on anyone in a southeastern uniform, these fucking whelks on the fart and BO tube can fucking do one as well. Make eye contact with me will ya? Get tae fuck! Why has that gimlet not got their pass or ticket ready for the gate, you've only had a fucking hour to prepare yourself for this moment. And that knobrot asking to see my ticket on the 4pm half empty 12 carriage train home? Suck my big hairy swingers, where were you this morning checking up on us all squeezed in like Rik Waller in a phone box.
Seriously, I'd need to be paid well in excess of 300k to consider doing that hell every day. And I'm a veteran of the A2 and M25
That's the other thing, be grateful you weren't trying to get back home from the smelly side of the Thames tonight. My mate got in at just before 10pm. He only works in Wickford!
1 - 'odour hub' might be my new favourite insult. Totally stealing that.
2 - Where's Mr Largo and what have you done with him?
Still here mate. Spent the last few months going into work at the crack of dawn and leaving at 4pm every day. It makes quite a significant difference - I tend to miss any disruption, or if there is any then it hasn't snowballed into the uber-shambles you get in the height of rush hour.
So, apart from being forced to use an outrageously expensive service, travelling on trains that should've been replaced 15 years ago and which haven't had working toilets for the last 10 months and haven't had working air con ever, I haven't really had much to complain about recently.
I do make the occasional journey during rush hour these days, just to keep my hate levels up and to remind me that one day I'm going to force-feed David Statham (the South Eastern CEO) 18 pints of cheap lager and then, when he starts complaining that he needs to go for a leak, I'm going to dangle him knob-first above the third rail and wait for nature to take its course.

this does concern me as you ve really thought hard about this !!
Arrived at Ldn Bridge for the 16.27 Hastings fast service from Cannon Street. Running on time, good. Didnt get the service at 16.23 from CX as it is 30 minutes slower. That departed. Then two minutes before its due the fast train is cancelled due to 'operational difficulties' at Cannon Street. Does being fucking useless count as an 'operational difficultly'? Only one word for them and it rhymes with Hunt. Thank gawd I only have two more days of southeastern to endure.
Had the misfortune to have to travel on the 17.27 HS1 from Stratford to Ashford yesterday evening. Some souls stood all the way from St. Pancras to Ashford in a six car train, which was completely rammed. F**k that for a game of soldiers considering the price of those season tickets.
Bit of good news potentially for anyone who lives in Sevenoaks, and presumably a fair few other places outside London. Still a total rip-off even with the saving though.
Didn't know about this until getting to cx but thankfully for me a couple of services are starting to run ... think just those to Sidcup. Taking its time tho

The fuck? How is that gammon blaming Grayling for the fact that Southeastern are thieving scumbags? I know that the regulation is shite, and the tories haven't actually told operators not to raise prices, but outright blaming the fucking government instead of the train companies lets them off the hook! It's the train companies that are the thieves. Avoiding blaming them gives them a license to continue stealing at the taxpayers expense.
Berkeley Homes has submitted detailed proposals to Greenwich Council for an enlarged station at Kidbrooke, on Southeastern's Bexleyheath line. The scheme is part of the redevelopment of the former Ferrier Estate, now renamed Kidbrooke Village with 4000 new homes replacing blocks of system built flats. The original 1895 station buildings were replaced in turn by a glass and concrete structure in the 1970's, and in 2014 by an 'interim building' while the site was redeveloped. The new station building will be larger than its predecessors, to accommodate an annual footfall expected to increase from the current 1.5 million as the redevelopment is completed. Sited more centrally to the Up platform than its predecessors, it will include a ticket hall, toilets, shops and cycle storage.
Treated myself to a lie-in this morning, with predictable consequences. Just got on the 8.41, at 9.04. Overcrowded - check. Morons unable to move down the carriage - check.
Broken down train blah blah blah. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause blah blah blah. Wankers.
"Delayed due to an unusually large passenger flow earlier on".
Pathetic, as usual, and my train actually arrived just outside St Johns a couple of minutes early and then sat at a red signal for 5 minutes, so I'm gonna call bullshit on this one.

To be honest a flow from a large passenger may take a while to clear up.

The DLR was screwed this morning which probably accounts for the extra passengers.

Indeed. Particularly with most of the toilets on South Eastern Trains still out of order.
Another excuse,sorry for the inconvenience @Se_Railway SERVICE UPDATE: the 10:49 Bromley South - Victoria was late departing Bromley south due to the driver becoming locked in the on board toilet. This train 5 minutes late. Sorry for the delay caused.

Lucky for the driver that he was able to find one of the few that wasn't out of service.
This excuse is insulting. It's inexcusable. The stuff they're coming out with these days to justify their shitness is outrageous. Just come out and admit that "your train is late because we've already got your money and we just cannot be bothered".

They clearly haven't got enough rolling stock.
