Default New Met line timetables

Why don't you phone london travel information 020 72221234 . if anyone
knows it will be them...


Yes I can and did for the exact time that I know I will be travelling on
Monday. But as I can work on any day of the week and travel in a fairly
broad time span, it is not very practical to have them read out 20
different train times down the phone.

I have this problem almost every time the twice yearly change happens
and can't understand why London Underground are incapable of getting the
new timetables to the stations (Amersham in my case) in time.

The fact that the stations beyond Moor Park are (I believe) the only
section of the Underground that still issue timetables to the public
make it seem even more incompetent, and this is compounded by the fact
the Chiltern line always have the new ones available about 2 weeks
before the change is due to occur.

So what LUL platform has timetables displayed that are out of date or
non-existent then?


I haven't looked recently but I had a SB train cancelled on me last year
at Amersham and when I looked at the platform timetable, it turned out
to be a very faded copy of the one before the (then) current one.
