From the South Eastern Railway website:-

Track improvements and maintenance are taking place from 02:30 on
12/09/10 to 04:00 on 13/09/10 between Nunhead and Bickley.

Furthermore, there is an additional Metro
train service that operates between London Victoria and Bromley North
calling at -in alphabetical order-: Denmark Hill, Grove Park,
Lewisham, Nunhead and Peckham Rye.

Why alphabetical order - what's wrong with the order in which they
call at these stations (Denmark Hill, Peckham Rye, Nunhead, Lewisham,
Grove Park) - it's as though whoever wrote that couldn't be bothered
to work out what order these stations came in! It reflects the lack of
care that often goes into such engineering works notices, which is
daft considering that alternative train services are being laid on.

===========

I have raised the alphabetical issue with them before as it can easily
mislead someone. I suspect they are so pig-ignorant that they couldn't list
them correctly if they tried.

So far as relying on the SE site, I was; except that it says, for train
times, go to the Journey Planner!!!

Anyway there is a notice on the ticket hall door at Bromley South saying "No
trains".

Thanks.
