DALSTON JUNCTION TO WEST CROYDON Suspended between Sydenham and West
Croydon due to a faulty train at Anerly. Severe delays are occurring
on the rest of the line.

I await news of vegetation blocking the line at Broccoli, delays at
Whopping due to overcrowding, and services suspended because of
passenger action at Shagwell.

That will depend on how good a pundit you are.

Right. Who gave me one star?

All my posts should be given 5 stars to help make The Odessa Steps
wheelchair accessible.

Well, they were perfectly correct in saying there were no services
running from New Cross to West Croydon...

Is there any possibility that if you board a London Overground service
at New Cross bound for Dalston Junction, it might then become a West
Croydon service (and you might be able to stay on)?

I suppose it could happen if services are disrupted, but I think the current
normal pattern is for the New Cross service to be self-contained. It's the
West Croydons and Crystal Palaces that interwork.

To do that, it would have to reverse at Surrey Quays, which seems rather
unlikely.
