Re: Southern

But for Southern (or anybody else) to put on an extra train in that period would require an enormous upgrade to the whole system at enormous cost and disruption for, probably, no significant extra revenue.

Southern

When are Southern (or the company currently running it) losing their franchise? That day can't come soon enough. They have been failing to run the 08:18 for months now and have been running trains but not stopping at the scheduled stations so their puntuality figures don't look so bad.
