I was there among it all. I was late cover and ended up working trains all night after a colleague was assaulted. There were also trains being turned round early at Gatwick due to fights and issues on board. West Worthings were extended to 8 car 377's. My late Seafords were 313's that were busy, but not packed. The last train, we were swapping over to a 5 car 377, but just before midnight the police closed the station and stopped the trains. We were left hanging around. Mainline trains that did leave took an age with folks blocking doors, but they were the usual, everyone playing sardines in coach 12 and coach 1 with one man and his dog. Trying to get folks moving up the platform into empty coaches was like herding cats. The problem is all day were are bringing packed trains to the coast, even ones arrive after 16.00 were very busy. Then Brittany ends at 22.30 and you had the whole park and most of Brighton heading for the last trains. We ran extra services as and when we could. Brighton on a sunny saturday is silly, add pride into the mix and it got very silly. Oh and last of all, you had madness out the front, but if they came in from the car park, that way was open and clear. Could have been worse. IT was planning to upgrade and turn off the e-mail system for the day, (they work 9-5, mon -fri so I guess don't think issues happen over the weekend), thank gawd that was pulled on thursday/friday.
