I have to get from Bromley to Henley on Sunday (and back). Engineering

missing something?

Help!

There is an ongoing issue with the Network Rail timetable database,
which all journey planners feed off - it potentially delivers wrong
information on weekends and bank holidays when there is engineering
works. FCC have a webpage describing the problems here (which affect
all TOCs and all journey planners):

It's been ongoing since I think May, when Network Rail switched over
to a new tmetable system, and has been causing all sorts of problems -
the Office of Rail Regulation has (at last) just got involved to put
some fire up Network Rail's behind on this issue.

With regards to your specific issue, afraid I haven't looked at it but
I'd go with what Southeastern are saying on their website and their
posters, not what the journey planner says.
