I will be traveling to Lymington Pier tommorow and just wondering will my journey be affected by the poor weather conditions?

I will board the 09:36am SouthEastern service from Grove Park station and will alight at Waterloo East from there I will travel the main Waterloo station and board a South-West Trains 10:XX service to Lmington Pier.

Any infomation will be be apreciated very much.

Your journey may be affected by a lack of through trains from Waterloo to Lymington Pier.

There's no 09:36 from Grove Park; I presume you mean the 09:32 which arrives at Waterloo East at 09:54. You can then get the 10:05 from Waterloo (platform 8 booked) to Brockenhurst arrival at 11:41. The next Lymington service will leave at 11:59, returning back to Brockenhurst at 12:24.

Oh dear, you have no luck sir!

Did you manage to get a bash in the end (I think the branch reopened from 1229?)

I got BR Blue & Grey 1497 and it was bloody brilliant even got to cab the unit!

On the SE service on the way back from Waterloo East was the worst missed three trains due to them being over crowded and delayed or cancelled due to the weather so I went back into Charing Cross where the train was empty and had to go via Mottingham and walk the rest!

Even the 09:32 was cancelled so I had to go by bus to lewisham and get the DLR and tube to waterloo and it took ages!

Just as well you were delayed on the way down really, the entire morning service was caped due to a Slammer failure.
