My kingdom for a train that departs and arrives on time.

More station skipping from @SW_Help this morning, making sure the disruption is maximised for as many people as possible. Passengers really are such an inconvenience...


So, despite our best efforts at crowdsourcing, these poor people still don’t have watches.

⚠️ *NEW 09/03* Following overrunning engineering works all lines have reopened between Weybridge and Woking. Train services running through these stations may be cancelled, delayed or revised. Disruption is expected until 09:00 - southwesternrailway.com/disruption



Between @SW_Help and @LDNOverground it is physically impossible to get to work on time. And it’s really, really fucking annoying.


This bollocky, knackered and faulty old door is the perfect metaphor for @SW_Help. The same annoying shit, over and over and over again. #SeeitSayitSharted


So, your service is fucked AGAIN @SW_Help. What a surprise. Instead of making an empty apology to me, could you get in touch with everyone’s employers instead and explain to them why a whole swathe of the country is perpetually late to work?


It’s now been well over a month since any of my trains were on time. But it’s ok, someone who has nothing whatsoever to do with the running of the service is sorry via Twitter. Phew. @SW_Help @grantshapps @transportgovuk


Aaaaaaand I’ve missed my connection yet again because @SW_Help can not run a fucking rail service. You may as well have a blind fucking Labrador in charge. At least you could understand why things were so miserably shit in that case.


Ten days into the new year and my train is yet to arrive on time once. Are you ok @SW_Help ?


Update: after two days of travel on @SW_Help in 2020, I’ve now racked up 84 minutes of delays. How is this either acceptable or worthy of increased fares? Absolutely disgusting. @transportgovuk @grantshapps


So far this year I’ve made two journeys into work. Total delay time so far = 65 minutes. Incredible work from @SW_Help


Huge lack of surprise on faces throughout the station as it turns out the @SW_Help network is completely fucked for the first proper day of commuting this year. And still the fares rise...


First commute of the year and I’ve already had to run to catch a train I was 10 minutes early for because those @SW_Help cretins announced a platform change as the train was pulling into the station. Why does this happen? Why heap even more stress onto your customers?


Day 23 of the absolute bullshit storm from @SW_Help and @RMTunion and the 08:48 Woking to Clapham 𝑠𝑡𝑖𝑙𝑙 hasn’t been on time once. Clowns.

Hi @SW_Help any idea why the 08:48 Woking to Clapham hasn’t been on time once since the start of the strikes? Not one time. Shouldn’t it be easier when there are half as many trains running? Asking for thousands of people.



Hi @SW_Help you didn’t get back to me about this. Seeing as it’s 12 minutes late today (still not on time once!) is there any chance you could let me know now?
