2017,
d remarked:

Indeed what? Is knowing the precise junction layouts of the
various lines
a prerequsite of being able to discuss this?

No, but it would help you not look like a total prat.

When I start wearing an anorak and hanging around at the end of
platforms
carrying a thermos flask and notebook I might give a ****. Until
then...

....we will ignore everything you say, as you've now admitted it's
founded upon ignorance.

Feel free to point out where I said anything of the sort.

Your clearly admitted ignorance of the most basic details of the
Thameslink routes.

So not knowing about part of the new thameslink route means I don't
know
anything at all? Oh how handwaving convenient for your limp riposte.

You've also previously demonstrated a complete lack of knowledge about
the Thameslink route from Blackfriars to London Bridge in the thread
you started entitled 'Blackfriars - London Bridge:

"When was there last a service that went through both these stations?
I noticed theres a 3 track chord linking the line from blackfriars to
the charing X line but the tracks were rusty and there were some
road-rail maintenance machines sitting on it. Is it just for
occasional out of service stock movements now?"

What's wrong with lacking knowledge? You too don't know everything.


That's certainly true: there are many, many things I don't know. But I
don't go round pouring scorn on things I know little or nothing about, as
Spud/Boltar does.


but you do go around stating your personal opinions as fact and berate
anyone who tries to tell you you are mistaken


Neither do I. However feel free to post an example of where I've done it if
you're so sure.

Thats the amusing thing about you, recliner, perry and ambulance blocker, you
tend to accuse me of this sort of thing yet when I ask for some examples you
all mysteriously go quiet. Ain't that strange?
