Waterloo - strange working by
Neil Hitchens
Was waiting for the 16:12 to Basingstoke today and noticed a delayed train
to Hounslow - stopping at Nine Elms Junction, West London Junction and
Richmond then Hounslow.
As I am 'merely' a daily commuter on SW Trains I am puzzled - was this a one
off or something they didn't mean to show on the regular departure board.
Thanks.

Victoria line suspension by
brixtonite
The Victoria line has been suspended between Victoria & Brixton since
this afternoon, due to a signal failure at Brixton. What are the
chances that it'll still be closed tomorrow morning? I have to get to
Stansted Airport by 7.15 and was hoping to get the first train (0526)
from Brixton to Tottenham Hale, and then the 0607 to Stansted, but if
there's a good chance it'll still be disrupted then...

Extra station on Crossrail? by
Colin McKenzie
A Hammersmith MP writes (in a circular email):
I believe there should be an additional station on the Crossrail
line at Old Oak to interchange with the West London Line. It is
technically possible to build this, but the economic case will
depend on the success of the Overground system.
My response:
I agree an extra station would be beneficial, but I think it should
interchange with...

Works unit only exit with hidden office on M11. What is it? by
Boltar
Theres a works unit only exit on the M11 just south of J5 Loughton. I
assumed this was just another gritter depot or police escape road but
if you look on google earth theres some sort of office building with a
neat car park on the western side. Anyone know what this is? Is it a
motorway police station or something like that?

OT- Thames Barrier Park by
John Rowland
One of the more bizarre aerial photos I've found... reminiscent of a
Mondrian. Now that Google Earth has entered into the common consciousness,
developers will start to spend as much time worrying about the view from
above as they do about the view from the ground, and we will see more and
more of this sort of...

the AIM of LIFE by
abdo911
What is your purpose in life? What is the rationale behind our life?
Why do we live in this life? These questions frequently intrigue
people who try to find accurate answers.
People provide different answers to these questions. Some people
believe the purpose of life is to accumulate wealth. But one may
wonder: What is the purpose of life after one has collected colossal
amounts of money? What...

Stephen Parascandolo by
Arthur Figgis
Croydon tram no.2535 was named "Stephen Parascandalo" in a ceremony at
the non-preferred platform of Beckenham Junction tram stop this afternoon.
The name commemorates the founder of the unofficial Tramlink website,
signaling engineer and poster to these groups, who was killed in a car
crash in February - today's naming was on what would have been his 27th
birthday.

Thameslink 2000 question by
unrealpolitik@gmail.com
The other day I was going from King's Cross to London Bridge. I was on
my way down to the tube, but as I passed the Thameslink platforms
there was a southbound train sitting there, so I jumped on that on the
assumption it would be quicker.
It wasn't. At all.
When TL2000 is finished, will such journies actually be quicker? Or
will Thameslink trains continue to trundle through the city at...
