Thameslink slashed key Harpenden services in the May 2018 timetable. We are campaigning to restore the service so many people rely on #saveHPDtrains

Only train running out of London for 45 minutes and @TLRailUK drop stops at Harpenden as well as other stations north of Luton. @TweetingCollins Thameslink abandoning Hpd again

Hi @TLRailUK
Please can you justify the website saying you’re running a good service with the fact there are no services running north of St Albans until 20:51 as you’ve cancelled services due to planning errors?

So once again @TLRailUK demonstrates passenger interest come bottom of the pile. Train stopped for 90 minutes due to signal or points problems (they weren’t very clear which) then make it all stops to see if you can delay everyone by 2 hours.

@TLRailUK when will you finally install e ticket readers at Farringdon? The queues to get in and out of the station are horrendous as you need to find gate staff to open gate and scan your ticket with a handheld device! Today I missed my train as a result @HPDCommuters

So train is delayed… and you remove key stops thereby delaying people trying to just get home even further. Then next Bedford train is all stations. @HPDCommuters

@TLRailUK you have cancelled the 21.46 Farringdon to Bedford train. Why can’t you run even the small fraction of trains that are meant to be running? @HPDCommuters

Hi @TLRailUK. Running fewer services does NOT help passengers. Please run as many services as you can and keep journey planners up to date. Or is this just a ploy to avoid paying compensation for people still paying full ticket prices for a reduced service? @BimAfolami @LouHaigh

Hey @TLRailUK can you let us know why the fast services at 17.36; 17.56 and 18:11 from St Pancras are all cancelled? A 60% cancellation rate at the peak of the evening rush hour? Can we have a 60% discount on our fares? #JustNotGoodEnough

Given you’ve had four days to plan, was it really a good idea to use an 8 carriage train as the first service to London at 0750, @TLRailUK ?

Not only were people left on the platform after the the 0750, even the next train couldn’t accommodate people trying to get to work to earn the money to pay @TLRailUK rail fares

Its very sad that someone was hit by a train near Gatwick, but all these hours later why is @TLRailUK still only running slow services on part of the route? You could have split the route to provide a service to the northern route like previous operators did.

.@TLRailUK please can you explain why again tonight you are axing trains stopping at Harpenden? As you can see the 17.36 was pretty much on time… the next schedule train is 10 minutes delayed. EMT run trains that run fast to Luton and Bedford. @BimAfolami @transportgovuk

2. Things. 1. Overhead wires are in stevenage and not on our line. 2. The driver has come on an said it’s a “minor incident” on our train so nothing on overhead wires and no proper updates and we are stuck in sidelines wondering when we will move. @BBCTomEdwards

.@TLRailUK Please can you explain why problem with the power lines at Stevenage mean multiple successive trains calling at #Harpenden are cancelled? @BimAfolami

The carriages needs to self isolate? I am sure they will come up with a random excuse that won’t bear scrutiny!

I would be waiting a while if that were the case! Not sure if you realise that commuters use commuter trains to errrr commute to work … so I can’t “simply wait”.

@TLRailUK when will you reinstate a proper timetable for Harpenden trains? Are you checking the loadings to see how horrendously overcrowded your trains are again? @HPDCommuters

Hi @TLRailUK, given the @10DowningStreet announcement today that it’s likely all Covid restrictions will go at the end of the month, will you be running a full timetable at or before that point?

.@TLRailUK Now the government has removed the work from home instruction please can you tell us when you will restore the full timetable so that trains are not unnecessarily crowded?
