Yes. I gave up on it due to its lethargic service despite the fact that the
air conditioned trains and nice view make it far more pleasent than the tube.
However its absolutely packed in the morning rush hour going south from
highbury.


Well if you're a bus afficianado then I'm sure the view from the upper
deck on the rail replacement bus will be even more pleasing than the
Overground (less tunnels).


Which part of "lethargic service" didn't you understand?

But - there's more - as it's a weekday rail replacement service they
have had to shake out an incredibly motley crew of double deckers from
the depths of Essex so if you're a fan of such things there must be some
interesting examples of the breed to ride on and take the numbers of.


I'll leave that to you pal. I can't stand the bloody things, either being on
them or being stuck behind them in a car. I use them when absolutely necessary
and no more.
