Another shambles...

Courtesy of TfHell and National Rail.

First the endlessly f*cked up Jubilee Line managed to turn a routine 10 minute journey into a 25 minute drag.

We stopped endlessly. Each time we did we were assured by the driver that we were awaiting the train ahead to leave the next platform.

Oddly, we were fed this same bullshit on both occasions we stopped between Canary Wharf and North Greenwich.

Later, we were left sitting at West Ham, so we were informed, to "...regulate the service...". More bullshit.

Finally we stopped 3 times on the approach to Stratford to, as we were advised "...await a train departing the platform..." (twice) and finally and inevitably we were "...awaiting a free platform...".

We eventuality arrived to find the inevitable 3 empty platforms.

Next, National Rail have a load of f*cked up signals somewhere north of Witham.

As sure as night follows day every bloody train going within 20 miles of Witham is being f*cked over, especially the Braintree services which go nowhere near the bolloxed signals.

Coupled with this crap there are also speed restrictions on place because it's f*cking summer again.

Only 8 weeks to go till the great Olympic clusterf*ck.
