What’s funny and also amazing is this was literally all caused by some bratty/chavvy 14 year old girl running around on the tracks between Wimbledon and Raynes Park.
I was on the Shepperton service and we got stuck on the train for nearly 2 hours while the police were trying to catch her – at one point she was running alongside the train mouthing off and swearing at people on the train. What normally takes me 40 mins to get home took nearly 4 hours.
I was stuck trying to get home from Vauxhall and my thoughts towards the trespasser were not very charitable to say the least.
Quietest day in Waterloo
thought that was Victoria at first and you’d already gone to Spoons
Lol I can see me down there
What gets me is my line was affected and we aren’t even on the line that had the trespassers.
Was this the incident that fucked up trains from London Bridge to New Cross Gate/Forest Hill too, platforms 11/12 etc? Was a shitshow there at rush hour
Can parents bring back disciplining their children please
They should just run the trains like normal with trespassers and just clean them up in the evening
My condolences. I don’t have to commute to Waterloo but I’d probably prefer to take multiple bus changes over dealing with that to get home.
Feel for you and others
Pub? Pub.
Rather you than me!
Y’all I got dressed left my house for work just to sit on the train and get stuck for over an hour at Waterloo. In the end I had to call my employer and she told me not to bother and just try find a way home. I HATE HATE HATE. the SWR rail. Not to mention this happens a minimum of once a month – I’m paying just about £10 a day for my commute btw. Half working train system.
It’s quite simple. You charge the family the cost of disruption. If it’s 100K then so be it.
Euston is a disgrace of a station, and that’s a on a good day.
I was at Waterloo when this was starting to happen
As soon as I heard the announcement about the trespasser and the indefinite delay time, I just got off the train |I was on and chose to take an alternative route home via the Northern line then some buses
Still not fucking home, 3 hours later than intended
