According to this graphic my train is going to stop in zone -1 .. despite SOU being perfectly capable of handling up to & inclusive of a 12 car 450 class service @SW_Help. Also my first time on a 450, have decided I don’t like them less comfy than a 440

Every time I travel @CrosCountryUK we are late, not because of operational issues but the chatty “train managers” who are always busy nattering with station staff rather than focusing on despatching the train!

Ok - I tried but eventually had to cave in and had to rebuy @Spotify premium. They’ve crippled the free tier massively. I could tolerate the ads but not being able to restart a song was a bit far for me

This morning on GBR, I mean @SW_Help …. 1B90 ran late into SOU sitting at a pointless red signal, the danger was already parked on the siding inside another signal. 2S97 then rolled in late for unannounced reasons & proceeded to loose more time to SAL @swtrains_watch

Unacceptable conditions at BMH @SW_Help 1B67 faulty doors in cars 9 back - unable to disembark at Station had to run down to other end of car due to faulty doors!!! And what a CASAM between train & platform - very dangerous! Guard nearly left with us on the train @swtrains_watch

Ok what’s happening here - I’m confused as train on RTT does not match the rolling stock in front of me… 🧐 @SouthernRailUK @swtrains_watch / anyone else with a clue care to enlighten me. At SOU watching P3A I see a southern stock but it identifies as 424174 not 387174

Station staff at SOU are even worse than my driver - they look inconvenienced by passengers & palm off all enquires with the shortest interaction & dismissal possible @SW_Help are on fire today for their service @swtrains_watch

Due to staff laziness I missed my connection by 10 seconds and now don’t know when or how I’m getting to work as all other types of trains are blocked @SW_Help

Delay at BMH as the train driver can’t be arsed to be at work on time - now I’ll miss my connection AND my bus AND be late for work / out of pocket for a taxi - thanks @SW_Help and your lazy staff

Fucks sake @RoyalMail why are your staff so useless I told him LEAVE THE PARCEL then my signal cut out as @VodafoneUK are
bad. Then he gives it to my neighbour which I don’t want! @AmazonUK this counts as NOT DELIVERED I’m not pissing around waiting for neighbour to be home

Lazy useless @RoyalMail failed to deliver my @AmazonUK parcel AGAIN despite Amazon telling them how to do so. Now I have to waist my time AGAIN phoning Amazon & fighting the AI to get through to someone who won’t be able to help

Another day, still broken. Clearly passengers don’t need to know when the train is coming @SW_Help how long can it stay broken… @swtrains_watch madness
