This has got nothing to do with Rolling Stock, length of trains, which company is the current operator, just incompetent staff at Brighton station.So at 6.49 last night I left Brighton station on an EMPTY 8 carriage train that went to Lewes and only stopped at Falmer.
All this whilst the huge crowds were being held outside.
The only way I was able to do this was by coming down from London and being ‘in front’ of the ticket barriers and on Platform 6 already, where the train left from.
When I asked if the train would be letting football fans on, the staff said they didn’t know, so we left empty with thousands waiting.
Totally inept.
An empty train leaving Brighton station whilst thousands stand queing the other side of the barriers....
