I appreciate engineering works need to be done but does anyone know why they can only run 1 train from Redhill to Gatwick Airport today?
The train from Reading gets in 2 minutes after the train leaves so people end up having to wait 58 minutes for the next train!
Clearly no joined up railway because from Monday Great Western Railway will be running services to Gatwick Airport. Tomorrow their are rail replacement buses from Reigate to Gatwick Airport but today, nothing, save a 58 minute wait.
Out of interest I looked up Clapham Junction to Gatwick Airport via Redhill and its apparently faster to travel down the quary line and double back via the train to Redill from Gatwick Airport then go via Merstham on the rail replacement bus.
If they can't run so many tarins, why no rail replacement bus? I will tweet Southern, Thameslink and Great Western Railway Tweeter accounts to ask.
