Great, Thanks for the help. I'll get my self a Farringdon ticket. Not only will i be able to travel to London bridge and farringdon but will save myself £500 per year. I which i realised this 5 years ago.

Hi, I am about to buy my next annual season ticket. I travel to London Bridge and Farringdon from Hassocks, so I have been buying a London Terminals ticket. However they told me that farringdon is not a London terminal. So if i buy a farrringdon ticket can i still get on at london bridge...

It sounds like I will not have too much extra trouble getting from Hassocks to London bridge on the bml.

I got a leaflet at london bridge. 70 capacity to 88 on the trains. That is roughly 3 extra seats per year of redevelopment. It is unclear if there will be many more trains from Brighton (hasssocks)

The southern services will still stop at London Bridge I think. So we will not be completly screwed on the Brighton line.

I do love hassocks. There was a helicopter searching for kids on the school roof recently. It Ooss like an episode of the wire living here.

Having spent three weeks commuting from hassocks I now know that the 422 express is the king of the london to Brighton line. The 319 is the poorper.

The trains with express written on the sides are great. Does anyone know how i can travel on these. I don't mind changing too much especially if it is early on.

It is my first day on my new commute. I got the 8:15 in and it was a joy. I am on the 18:00 home. I got a seat but only just, it is a packed train full of people eating and talking on their phones. Confortable train though. It beats my old commute by miles. Those FCC trains to Brighton from...

Great advice, I always like to micro manage my travel. I am really looking forward to moving to Hassocks, I love walking and the southdowns. I also hate the Waterloo and city line which (in three weeks time) I will never have to use again. Happy days Thanks

I thought they were all 12 coach trains on that line. Are the 377s 3 x 4 coaches?

Great info. Those will be my trains. Coming back would be the 17:42 , 17:59, 18:12, 18:27 and if I am lucky the 16:57. I guess I will need to learn where to stand on the platform to get on the 2+2 seats. Or do you mean some trains are all 2+2 and some all 3+2 seats. Thanks for the awesome advice

Hi, I am just about to move to Hassocks. I did plan on burgess hill / haywards Heath but opted to be in Hassocks for the south downs. Had a lot of great advice on here so far, so thanks. Has anyone got any tips for communiting hassocks to London bridge. I was planning on getting the 8:15...

So if I get on at hassocks I would be on a 377 or the dreaded 422. Hopefully not too many of those at rush hour.

How do you know this stuff d1009, i assume you must be a commuter. Do you know Which trains fork off at bhill to lewes.

Yes that is not quite as specific as I had thought. I mean: type of design, the trains' 'class' numbers.

All, Thanks for all the great posts, I have enjoyed reading them and they have been usefull. I have another more specific question posted here: http://www.railforums.co.uk/showthread.php?t=64620 It would be great if someone could have a look. Cheers

Specifically I would like to know: the numbers of the trains running to london bridge form. Hassocks Burgess Hill wivelfield Havwards Heath I can then Google them this will help me decide where to move to/what i am letting myself in for. Really appreciate the help...

I come into Waterloo on sw trains. They suck ass. They are 5 seats across and packed. I do get a seat at Camberley tho. I then get the Waterloo east to London bridge, often those trains are lovely. For those of you who come in to London bridge. 1.where are you from? 2.do you get a...

My offices are in fenchurch street so blackfriars may be okay. A longer walk though. I don't like the tube. --- old post above --- --- new post below --- am I correct that thameslink do not go to Burgess hill area so this at least will not effect me.
