New Train Timetables

[terrymendez]

Apologies if fxtrs - heard a rumour from some commuter buddies that if you want to get to London Bridge at a half decent hour (8am) you have to sit in a piss smelling FCC train from December...had a quick look at the new timetable and it seems to be the case.

 

[gullshark]

You always had to in the first place?

Or change at EC / CJ

 

[Kaiser_Soze]

Are you coming from Horsham/Crawley way or are you talking Brighton? If Horsham then there is the 6.49 that gets in at 7.48 direct. I presume that will be going? Its the only direct one though-all others are a change or two.

 

[terrymendez]

I think the preferred 06.41 is no longer

 

[terrymendez]

thats the 06.41 from Brighton

He states his location as 7 Dials - why do you think he might be coming from your remote part of Sussex?

From Brighton I think that's the case. I know our eveing times have changed from LB to Shoreham.

16:53 will be 16:57
17:32 -> 17:42
18:15 -> 18:12

 

[Deleted User X18H]

you will now have to change and get the 0638 retimed 0634 from Preston Park

Welcome back me how they've missed you.

I'm rather looking forward to the new 51 minute service from Brighton to Victoria.

 

[gullshark]

What 51 minute service? it says on the leaflet the Gatwick Express will take 1hr 10 minutes.

 

[Dover]

The Ashford to Brighton train is now at 1h 50min, which is riughly the same tim from Dover Prory to Victoria, so my journey time with a 20 min stop over in Ashford will be 2h 30.

It might be £25 dearer but I might just go via Victoria as the service is a little more relaible.

I'm sure I saw a 51 minute one when I last looked at the changes. Will check my personal timetable when I get home.

 

[gullshark]

Hmm, yeah the 9.49AM one is a 51 minute service, the others are all an hour like normal...

Whilst on the subject of trains, the hourly Brighton - Watford Junction direct trains are stopping on the 1st of december. 2 days before i'm going to Watford of the League cup QF's.How f***ing annoying is that.

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

By far the best thing about the timetable changes (well, apart from the Gatwick Express apparently stopping at Preston Park!) is that far fewer Sussex trains will be stopping at East Croydon. Which should improve the onboard air quality by about 500%
