I live within a mile of Queensbury tube staion but understand (from an email from TfL) the Jubilee Line had no service between Wembley Park & Stanmore "due to adverse weather conditions". Pathetic! -- Helen D. Vecht: Edgware. |

LU say that there are no Met trains to Chesham or Watford and severe delays to Amersham, also delays on the Piccadilly, all caused by "adverse weather". Can't they cope with a normal winter's day, or are conditions really bad? -- Richard J. (to e-mail me, swap uk and yon in address) |

Coleman writes I'm in North London and we do not seem to have much snow here, apparently there are problems on the central and metropolitan lines. So whats the snow like were these trains are going? There was certainly snow falling heavily in Essex this morning as I drove to work. I was most interested in LBC's 13.00 news item which said that tube bosses admitted they were unprepared for the bad weather and no trains at all ran on the underground during the morning peak. I can't tell you how pleased I was to be reassured that it was only a bad dream ;-) -- Kat Me, Ambivalent? Well, yes and no. |

There is now! There's loads. I was off today and there was some just before 11am and some when I got up. -- To reply direct, remove NOSPAM and replace with railwaysonline For Train Information, The Latest News & Best photos around check out the Award Winning Railways Online at http://www.railwaysonline.co.uk "Hating Thames Trains since 2003" |

Faringdon station closed tonight at around 6:30 due to 'safety' reasons,
it was hard to hear this over the speakers but it seems this was because there was some snow on the end of the platforms, trains were non- stopping, Very rude station staff trying to get people,of the platforms including threating to call the police to remove disgruntled passengers and physically pushing people (who as usual were give no proper explanation) Dave...

So whats the snow like were these trains are going? A couple of flakes probably blew across the line which this being britain of course means that trains immediately break down, points freeze, rails break and so forth. God help this country if we ever really get severe weather like they have in scandinavia or central & eastern europe. God knows what we'd do. B2003 |
