This is my reply:
"THIS is Nanny State. Alight here for The Lecture Centre on Standards and Practices. This is a Dull Line train to Over Compensating, via Political Correctness"

Not sure if this is news to anyone, but this morning I saw 319005 in Southern livery at KX Thameslink as part of the ~09:00 FCC service to Bedford. It looked rather out of place in its reasonably new coat of paint compared to the Thameslink blue and yellow unit (319371?) that it was coupled to.
Had Southern already given some 319s to FCC, or is this a recent transfer?

Agreed. Instead of this at the top:
"Welcome, WSXFan."
I should see the following:
"Welcome to :bs: and Froth Central, WSXFan."
:tongue3:
Having talked with the train service director of FCC it seems that their strategy to cope with overcrowding on GN (apart from the evening peak ticket ban) is to get hold of some more EMUs, as there aren't enough to go around, especially when taken out of service because of one unders. Getting some 321s, currently at Silverlink was mentioned. This morning I saw a single Silverlink 321 parked outside Hornsey depot, perhaps under evaluation or something.
They are also talking with Network Rail to get the power feed at Royston upgraded as soon as possible, hopefully by the end of next year. There would also be platform lengthening to allow 12 car trains to run to Cambridge (which is currently a little bit too short).
