At Kennington Bank Branch Southbound the other day, my train stopped for
about 6 minutes.

A train pulled in on the C+ platform, which usually means it's going to
terminate, and then all the passengers will come over to fill up the bank
train. But instead it was a through train, and left Kennington before the
bank train did, which then had to wait another couple of minutes (and indeed
for another c+, this time terminating, to pull in and unload).

Now, the question is, what the **** was the point of this? And why didn't
the driver tell us to get off the train and get the c+ service, which would
be the quickest way to reach southbound destinations?


Write to TfL if you want them to do something about it.
