No really.

Are the announcements that loud so deaf people can hear them, or are you trying to make everyone deaf to justify the volume of your announcements?

And Another Thing....

Whilst on the topic of SW Trains.

Which moron in your organisation is it that thinks it's helpful and considerate to all the fee-paying commuters to have 8-carriage trains running in off peak times (ie. after 9am and before 3pm), whilst during peak hours, deems a 4-carriage train to be just what we'd prefer.

It beggars belief!

Can I get a job with you? I'm not one to blow my own trumpet, but I'm reasonably smart. With me on board (no pun intended - I assure you), you might actually start to deliver a service that people would be half way satisfied with.

Thank You South West Trains!!

For making my journey home today so interesting and a break from the norm. Naturally, if I didn't have a life, and didn't need to schedule my day around work, school pick ups / drop offs and other general activities, then I'm sure hanging around your scummy stations wouldn't be such an issue.

But (and I'm guessing I'm not alone in this) if I schedule my day to catch a train that needs to get me to point B by a certain time, then arriving at point B 20 minutes late helps me not one bit, and invariably costs me money one way or another.

And to top it off, you put on a replacement bus service for the trains you've mysteriously cancelled, with a driver who doesn't know the area at all!

Let me congratulate you on a really good day's work.

Poor People on PublicTransport

Why you guys can't organize your finances so you don't have to go on the tube and buses beats me.
When my driver's off, I take a taxi.
Get a life.

Can you hear me? No of course you can't, because the fan thingy on this tube is filled with cement mixers, harrier jump jets and strip mines. Or maybe it, like so many other things on the underground, is broken and about to explode. Still, when it does at least we will be able to hear ourselves think.

Is it just me...

Or is it hot in here?

Please use all available space

WHAT available space?!? I am pressed up against the glass divider trying to avoid letting my nose touch the greasy hair stain left by some other poor sap, while another carriage worth of red-faced would-be commuters tries to surge off the platform before the doors slide shut... THERE IS NO MORE AVAILABLE SPACE... MAKE MORE TRAINS!!!!

Oi! Train drivers!

Yes I know when the next station stop is, you told me a minute ago. And a minute before that. Shhh. I am trying to read a book.

What the hell is going on with the 243 bus from Waterloo?

How many do you have Ken - 2? Maybe if there were more the queue wouldn't start and finish in different postcodes.

After my trip in to the office.

I am hot sweaty and stressed. What a great way to start the working day.

HOW MUCH?

£3 for a single - You have GOT to be kidding.

All I wanted was to get to work.....

why do you have to torment us day after day after day?

Is it really neccessary....

To make deafening announcements every 20 seconds, in a hopeless attempt to diguise the self evident paucity of service.

So much investment.....

Apparently. So little change.
