Default New Years Eve - Thank You!

I just wanted to post a quick message here to say Thank You to all the
staff who turned up to work on the underground on New Years Eve and
into the early hours of New Years Day.

All the trains I travelled on, the drivers were courteous and friendly
letting us know of all the station closures and it was a pleasure to
use.

Maybe your RMT friends could learn a thing or two about customer
service from the drivers as "tried" and "failed" to ruin the one night
of the year everyone is trying to have a good time.


Somewhat belated thanks from myself and from all those who were at
fantastically raucous party somewhere in East London (one of many
raucous parties in the capital I'm sure). Many of the party goers
arrived and, much later, departed by Underground. Had the strike taken
effect then I think it would've been a much lesser occasion as people
wouldn't have turned up. Additionally the through the night service was
most useful, although many of us ended up catching what would
normally've been the first trains of the morning.

Anyway the point is that the New Years Underground service brought
people together to have a great time, and Londoners very much
appreciate the staff who made it happen. And all the staff I came
across were all in good humour and most friendly. Good stuff.
