Cannon St f*cked, depending on who you speak to it's either power failure or signal problems. Got to london Bridge but most trains delayed. Nothing for sidcup line.

Been at CS for last hour, sat on bexleyheath line 16:42 for last half hour waiting to leave. 1 train in or out due to a circuit failure apparently.
Also hearing Victoria trains diverted via CS but that doesnt sound likely.0 -
Just started moving - leaving CS0

I love it when these issues happen on hot days. Nothing thrills me more then some sweaty armpit in my face during a crowded train journey home.1

"Displaced train crew" for my cancellation.
They're humans, not car keys FFS!! How can you displace a human?0 -
It means either the train crew are in the wrong place, or the train the're meant to be operating is - or in plain English, they are as stranded as you are._nam11 said:No word of a lie...

Funnily enough, I was travelling on the DLR from Stratford to Lewisham last Thursday,and got as far as All Saints when they announced that there was a points failure at Poplar, so they were terminating there and going back to Stratford, so everyone needed to get off. So don't get too cocky.ForeverAddickted said:Its moments like this that make me happy I dont have to rely on SouthEastern anymore... (Sayint that just hope it never happens on the DLR lol!)

If a driver signs on at say Slade Green or Dartford, sometimes the first train he is due to drive might be starting in London so he has to travel up as a passenger to get to it. So if a problem occurs he like everybody else is stuck. Sometimes they are only given 15-20 mins to make it, so with average delays, he would be late, and on major delays like today, he is too late to take the train._nam11 said:No word of a lie...

When i first started on the railway in 84 every depo had 3 or 4 spare drivers sitting around just for things like this, but when railways went private, it wasnt seen as being worthy of the cost of paying drivers money to sit around just in case, so they cut most of them out.

South west trains also screwed. Signal problems at Waterloo.0

Someone I know, who was at Denmark Hill station, told me that someone there had jumped. She had a kid with her, so I didn't ask if she saw it or not.0

Delays and cancellations due to earlier fatality and points malfunction at canon street managed to get the delayed 17:32 from charing cross to barnehurst but it crawled between Waterloo and London bridge0
