With the deletion of several Connex services from the new timetable (in
particular 19:20 Cannon St - Dartford via Sidcup), there's now a 57

minute

gap between Sidcup line services that serve Lewisham.

If you miss the 18:51 from Lewisham to Sidcup, the next train is at 19:48.

So much for "turn up and go".

Connex give even less of a ****



How is this possible?


However, Connex still have their priorities right. Despite loosing
their franchise, they're spruced up their website. So, they've got the
important things right.

Ah...just checking their main international website. Apparently Connex
also run the bus network for Jersey. So, obviously they must be
planning on using their website for those services once they've been
stripped of their rail franchise...

Connex also run trains in Europe
I am visiting Berlin soon will look out for them - Special Fares apply
AFAIK DB tickets are not valid.
Also operate in Sweden.
