Yes, there were Chiltern trains into Marylebone roughly every fifteen
minutes, including a Wembley shuttle service back and forth.


Have to agree here... did they check before they travelled? No... clearly
they didn't, otherwise they would have found Chiltern were operating
enough extra trains to / from Wembley Stadium to get everyone to / from
the gig, and these trains were being advertised on Journey Planner as an
alternative to the suspended Jub / Met.

I know it's a pain, but really, when travelling at the weekend, just take
a moment and check the website. Saves you getting stuck in Harlesden!

I don't know, f**king passengers, they don't spend ages checking what is
running then they believe what the station staff tell them, cretins.
