I went to Putney today to deal with various matters to do with my late
mother's estate. On the way back I arrived at East Putney to see the next train advertised as "City train" in 5 minutes. After a few minutes it changed to 1 minute and an Edgware Road train was added due in 5 minutes. So I thought I would let the first train go and get the Edgware Road train to Notting Hill Gate, on my way to Liverpool St. I wasn't therefore paying attention at first when the train arrived and didn't see the front of it. As it pulled up I looked at the side of it and thought "hang on, that's C stock; it can't be a City train" and jumped on it, just in time. But why did the PIS get so confused? And what will we do when the S stock is all in service? It will all look the same then. I chose the Notting Hill Gate route because it was what the Journey Planner suggested. In all my years I have never thought of that as the fastest route between Liverpool St and East Putney. Has the Central Line been accelerated enough recently to make a difference? -- Colin Rosenstiel |
