(That's actually SouthEastern, but the same principle applies: ludicrously short trains. What I couldn't understand was that the day after the snow Southern managed to run a regular service on the Beckenham Junction-Birkbeck-Crystal Palace line, but the day after *that* ran a Saturday service but wi...

Is that the same as an Anytime Day Return? Or do they still sell them? No, the Anytime, as its name suggests, allows you to travel during the morning peak as well. If they still sell them it looks cheaper to get an Anytime Day Return with a Gold card/Network Railcard than pay for two Oyster singles...

Problem with Crystal Palace TV transmitter?
Has anyone else suddenly got really bad reception on analogue (assuming any of you are still on it)? My TV's suddenly gone so bad that it looks as though I'm using an internal aerial and watching through a snowstorm, and I'm having to watch on digital just to get a reasonable picture, although even ...

Currently PW and Anerley have a 2tph service to LB. At the end of May, they will have 6tph (4tph ELL and 2tph LB - rising to 4tph LB during the morning rush hours). [snip] In summary (in my view) PW and Anereley will move in May, from a dire rail service to a pretty good one. Currently only about 3...

Kirkdale Business Centre at Cobbs Corner has space as well, I believe. No contacts I'm afraid, you might need to look for the door and ask! Thought I'd post some feedback here in case it's of use to anyone else - am currently making a huge effort to find somewhere owing to a very noisy neighbour pl...

Needing somewhere to work from
Hi. I'm just about to start a new life as a freelancer, but my dining room table's way too small to work off, and I'm stuck for space for storing papers, books etc. I was wondering if anyone knew of anywhere in the Sydenham/Penge/Anerley/Beckenham/Croydon area where there might be some sort of small...

Re: Evening rush hour trains from LB cut by one third in 201
I’m afraid that we have uncovered a further piece of bad news for local rail users. From May 2010, Southern intend to cut evening rush hour services from LB from 6 trains per hour to 4tph. Southern will look at the situation again in December 2010 (when they have a delivery of extra carriages) to s...

The peak time might be of more concern to some of you but it is the high frequency of trains off-peak which makes our route to London Bridge so darn brilliant. They run, generally, at 10 minute intervals throughout the day, so no need for timetables at all, almost like a tube train. We really do no...

Similar messageboard for Penge?
Hi, I'm a newbie here, came across this site totally by accident a few months ago. Since my Sydenham "address" is very much on the Penge side of Sydenham, and much of this board seems to relate to the High-Street/Kirkdale sort of area, I was wondering if anyone knew of a similar board cove...
