As a daily commuter between Brighton and London Victoria, I find the Connex South Central Brighton line comical. I can't remember the last time my journey took the expected time.
The latest adventure took me down to Barnham to take a diversion to reach Victoria. Owing to a landslide at Haywards Heath the whole service fell to pieces.
How can the recent crash at Shoreham affect all southbound trains from Victoria? And why, oh why, did the crane to remove the wreckage have to come from Cardiff - at a rate of 15mph?
With all this, I am still not bitter. I just find it funny. But my adventures will continue and just maybe, one day (once Connex has gone), my trains will be on time.
