"if only they had patronised the service previously and how many ignore "their" train until "they" decide to close the service"
Well, I was fourteen and lived in Wandsworth and went too school in East Acton. I suppose I could have caught the trolleybus to White City, the underground to Charing Cross and then on to Paddock Wood but it wouldn't have left much time for homework.
Oh, and my income as a butchers' delivery boy wouldn't have stretched to too many journeys come to think of it.
Meanwhile in the real world, freight was switching to road in every-increasing volumes.
