Road is open again, was a 5 mph ESR over the bridge

Would a GTR machine at Kings Cross sell the Super Off Peak single at that time?

I wonder how many off peak singles will be sold from/to Manors after 5th Feb?

Ah so just avoid those apps! Cheers

Haha. I wouldn't touch an M Ticket! Delving further it appears that its just the Northern and EMR apps (and I guess all with the same interface) that are showing TOD only for this flow. So the question is why would some apps have eticket and some not?

6 months ago you could buy a off peak single from Gainsborough to Biggleswade as an eticket. Now its TOD only. Lea Road has no TOD facility, Gains Central does but as its ticket machine is on the platform, there is no access to it at weekends when there is no service. Strangely, Gainsborough to...

I was always told to tell them you'd call the police etc so not to lose face. Then get on with the rest of our job. 9 times out of 10 they'd just leave next stop. Easier said then done though

One is DOO , the other not. When you are DOO with a high frequency service at a booked stop. There is more chance the doors will be released. Extending the wires to Shep Bush would be a great idea, but no one wants to pay.

Most is automated now, basically whatever is booked to go in front does so. PBO line trains run late for various reasons so delay those from BDM at STP

It is at North Pole yes. Southern have to stop, ARL don't

Yes its a policy. The driver is told at last minute , normally at Willesden Jct to run fast by Control. This in theory stops a build up of 5 trains in 5 mins routine. Also gives the late runner an on time start at Stratford. The more stops you put in the more hassle it causes... lack of loops on...

TCS and Comtrol running around like headless chickens... you're not gonna get too much until the driver+ guard accept the workings

Our company... we can't get in or out we are told to take unpaid leave. Quite frankly we might've stayed on strike

A single from Blackwater to Camberley is actually 3.95 with a big break in Wok

Normally the path is blocked on the slow lines from Euston so if it does another circuit it cant get back
