Hi,

I'm in North London and we do not seem to have much snow here,
apparently there are problems on the central and metropolitan lines.
So whats the snow like were these trains are going?

I'd be surprised if there was any. There's none out here in Aylesbury.

Burnt Oak has had a *light* dusting. I live within a mile of Queensbury
tube staion but understand (from an email from TfL) the Jubilee Line had
no service between Wembley Park & Stanmore "due to adverse weather
conditions".

Pathetic!

LU say that there are no Met trains to Chesham or Watford and severe delays
to Amersham, also delays on the Piccadilly, all caused by "adverse
weather". Can't they cope with a normal winter's day, or are conditions
really bad?

There was certainly snow falling heavily in Essex this morning as I
drove to work.
I was most interested in LBC's 13.00 news item which said that tube
bosses admitted they were unprepared for the bad weather and no trains
at all ran on the underground during the morning peak.
I can't tell you how pleased I was to be reassured that it was only a
bad dream ;-)

A couple of flakes probably blew across the line which this being britain
of course means that trains immediately break down, points freeze, rails
break and so forth. God help this country if we ever really get severe weather
like they have in scandinavia or central & eastern europe. God knows what we'd
do.

They're really not too bad round here.

No, they can't cope with a normal winter's day.

If we were in scandinavia all the point heaters would work, not
checked the morning after a snowfall, and there would be plenty of
de-icing trains running with de-icing fluid (instead of water as on
the metropolitan line last night).

I was in Stockholm before xmas; it snowed for around 24 hours. All the
point heaters were working and there were no problems at all.

I'd be surprised if there was any. There's none out here in Aylesbury.

There is now! There's loads. I was off today and there was some just before
11am and some when I got up.

"Hating Thames Trains since 2003"

Faringdon station closed tonight at around 6:30 due to 'safety' reasons,
it was hard to hear this over the speakers but it seems this was because
there was some snow on the end of the platforms, trains were non-
stopping,

Very rude station staff trying to get people,of the platforms including
threating to call the police to remove disgruntled passengers and
physically pushing people (who as usual were give no proper explanation)
