I see that there's power issues in the Watford area for London Midland and
services to/from London Euston will be severely disrupted on Monday. What
with the constant maintenance work around Willesden, I have to say London
Midland's service of late has been shockingly bad. I guess I'll be off to
Stanmore tomorrow to get into work.


A great tirade of complaints about the London Midland service can be
found over at uk.railway, in particular regular LM commuter Neil
Williams has been keeping people abreast of the collapse of their
service. Don't blame the work in the Willesden area - that may
possibly have contributed in a small way to LM's recent problems, but
it would appear their inept management is largely responsible - what's
required of LM by the new December timetable is indeed somewhat more
than beforehand, but LM appears to have made a total hash of managing
the transition to the new timetable.

Of course there's also the London Overground (DC line) stopping
service from Watford Jn into Euston to fall back upon should LM go
titsup, though of course pretty much everyone else at Watford will
have the same idea!
