Today I asked TFL Customerline for a more recent copy of my Local Journey Planner and was told that it is only online. Can this be correct? I have my old 2004 copies for L6 (Ilford) and L4 (Walthamstow). Is there anything else I can get which updates those A5 booklets?

An hour or two ago the Crossrail Bill became the Crossrail Act, which means as soon as the funding agreement is signed (due in September) the thing might actually see the light of day. U -- http://londonconnections.blogspot.com/ A blog about transport projects in London

I had to take the tube to our london office today. Went down onto the platform. 1 minute later I realised I'd left something at home and went out again. Luckily I always check the gates and noticed it had deducted a quid! So much for the 15 min grace period mentioned on here by others. The lady in the ticket office was nice enough to put it back on the card but how many other people have been...

Weren't we supposed to be getting some hybrid buses running on the streets Real Soon Now about a year ago? They were to be powered by electric motors with a small diesel engine to charge the batteries AFAIR. Are they out there now or still in the design stage or did they get the boot along with Comrade Ken? B2003

At about 07.40 on Sunday morning 20/07/08, I saw a westbound train at Aldgate East. The destination on the front was "CIRCLE LINE". There was no mention of it on the platform train describer. The PA sounded something akin to: "This is a Circle Line service via Liverpool Street". Where might it have been parked? What wanderings do Circle Line services do? I have occasionally been on a Circle...

In the recent past, I have complained when trainboard PA advertises interchanges that do not exist - mainly due to engineering closures. While travelling this weekend, 2 District trains reported absence of Jubilee and Victoria lines at Westminster and Victoria, a southbound Northern line train reported the Jubilee missing at Moorgate and a Circle line reported the Victoria outage at Kings...

Just been reading on Wikipedia that Amersham might be going down to having just two trains an hour? Is that not a really poor service?

Public transport has always been awful; and over the past couple of years I've noticed that more and more often I'm squashed inside a bus or train, with hardly enough room to breathe, because the company decided to cancel earlier buses or trains without notice, and without making any alternative arrangements. Because I believe that this gross-overcrowding is a serious risk to public health...

At one point yesterday I needed to get from Tower Hill to Shadwell. With Tower Gateway closed and Bank/Monument restricted, I wondered if I could take c2c from Fenchurch Street and change at Limehouse. "On the spot" I wasn't sure if Oyster PAYG was valid out of Fenchurch Street. (I now know it is but had no way of finding out then, short of asking at the Fenchurch Street barrier. The chap...

Went to see "Prince Caspian" last night - it opens with a very authentic-looking London scene during the war, including 1940s taxis and buses, and the entrance to Strand Underground station - then down on to the platform, and 1938 stock. Presumably the scenes on the platform are actually Alwych - but I am fascinated to know how the outside scenes were done. Is it a combination of...

At last night's meeting, I extolled the advantages of a RADAR key which gives access to toilets for the disabled. I do not consider myself disabled but research this morning showed Revenue & Customs thinks otherwise. RADAR keys can be bought with VAT by anyone and without VAT by disabled people making an exempting declaration at http://www.radar.org.uk/radarwebsite/tabid/41/default.aspx....

Just walked in the house. Was good to meet a few of the denizens of this Parish. Notable were Messrs Jelf, Corfield, Thant, asdf, Anderson, Briscoe and Rosenstiel Certain others were notable by their absence. Suggestions were made that this could be a bi-annual event; I leave it

I was walking over a bridge near the central line near Hangar Lane today which has a freight only NR line running beside it and I saw an HST going into london on that line. Since it was empty I'm guessing it was a stock transfer but where has it come from and where is it going? B2003
