Amused by a banner depicted in the morning paper, held by disgruntled Southern commuters. Little do they realise that Southern/GTR/DfT *is* the closest we currently have to the sod-the-passenger British Rail. If they were at Birkbeck Station I could well understand it! (The new timetable has no trains at all on the Crystal Palace - Beckenham Junction line except on Saturdays.) |

Change at West Croydon to the tram but you can (not you will) be quicker going CYP-Sydenham-Penge West-Shanks Pony and/or 194 bus-Penge East-BKJ. http://ojp.nationalrail.co.uk/servic...journey/search https://tfl.gov.uk/plan-a-journey/ The direct Saturday service has a 30m interval so if you've only just missed a train the pretty route might still be quicker than waiting. |
