Those of you lucky enough to have gone to this concert yesterday, will
know of the pathetic attempts by LU to get the crowds away in a timely
manner. Doesn't bode well for the Olymics, does it?

Amongst other things, Jubilee was closed from Wembley Park to
Stanmore, the Met seemed to be shutdown altogether; Bakerloo from
Wembley Central ran the last train and left thousands of people
milling about wondering what to do next.

On the other hand, Chiltern Railways were doing a phenomenal job getting the
crowds away from Wembley Stadium in both directions. Services from
Marylebone were enhanced by additional trains ex-Wembley Light Maintenance
Depot, where additional stock had been gathered, running in six and
seven-car formations to High Wycombe or Aylesbury, between the timetabled
services. Additionally, stock was being run into the turnback siding and
back into the up platform to provide additional seven-coach trains into
Marylebone. All very efficiently handled, with crowds segregated immediately
that they left the stadium approach road. I left the stadium at 22:05 and
was on a train heading north at 22:19. No complaints whatsoever.
