Does it have a name yet? Can I suggest FFS FCC...
Shame the railways didn't learn and STILL leave themselves open, exposed and dependent on a single box almost 30 years later.
When did logic play a part on the railways?
I'm surprised the railways know what this word means.

That's good news, many thanks. Don't think the racing will be off, it's 1-7 on Betfair to go ahead, but even if it gets washed out, for various reasons I'm still likely to be needing a train.
How are you getting to Kempton?

Went from Brighton to Hampton court via Glasgow yesterday. Wasn't as bad as expected. It wasn't the rail services that were the pain in the arse it was all the train passengers moaning and complaining and pushing and shoving and generally acting as if they had been personally wronged by Southern Rail. If they had all calmed down, realised that whatever happens the journey is going to take longer, there's nothing anyone can do and if people accepted that and relaxed it would be all the more pleasant for people. The rail companies kept us updated and informed and were realsitic, they didn't raise anyon'e expectations. I think my journey took an hour longet than normal and one more change at Gatwick than usual. People really do get themselves in a pickle don't they?

Lucky enough to have a lift sorted to get there, but only as far as East Croydon on the way back.
No trains to Kempton Park but there is a bus service from Kew tube station. But then there is a tube strike

Took me nearly 4 hours to get from Tunbridge Wells back home on Friday night/Saturday morning. Finally got back home just before 2:30am, shocking to think even at that time the carriages were packed like a tin of sardines. Could only imagine it was 10x worse throughout the day.
