Default trains into Waterloo - back to nomal?

Does anyone come into Waterloo on the Strawberry Hill etc lines that have
been disrupted this week? Last night they announced that services would be
back to normal this morning, are they? Or are they still suffering delays?

Thanks
Tim

Seem back to normal today. Work was completed Wednesday afternoon.

Problems on the SWT I read somewhere on Yahoogroups were Netley, Salisbury
and Dawlish problems. Also bridge strike at Claygate. Otherwise back to
normal. Though the work at Clapham this weekend is on for a while with the
bridge renewal work outside Clapham.

Trains via Richmond have generally been OK as it was the Wimbledon lines
that were affected by the crane at Clapham Junction.

Well, at least it was OK until one of those unreliable Junipers doors failed
yesterday at Putney resulting in my train being held then reversed to
Barnes, resulting in it being 35 minutes late into Waterloo.

Anyone know if they are going to get rid of the Junipers now they have the
Siemens Desiero's arriving?

Numerous rumours they are going somewhere.

Yes, my 09.05 Epsom to Waterloo was running the obligatory 7 minutes late
yesterday and today which means things are perfectly back to normal.

to normal!

On an interesting sidenote, I saw the stricken Kirow crane being taken
down Garratt Lane at about half seven this evening on a low loader.
Looked in surprisingly good shape considering, though maybe it was the
side that didn't hit the deck...

Great fatality at Putney and also another one at St Margaret's!
