But the mainline trains seem to be faring worst today so far.


My journeys to and from work yesterday were great. Southern's severely
reduced service worked well, being on time in both directions, and the
38 bus was almost empty.

Today, though, was a nightmare. Southern tried to run a normal service,
but I waited for almost an hour at Thornton Heath for a northbound
train.


What time? I got the 08:23 from Thornton Heath this morning no trouble.
It arrived at 08:30 but to be honest that particular train is always
late anyway...

It was much emptier than usual.
