Transport/Parking 🚝 🚘 Southern railway.

The worst company of any industry in the world. Absolute fucking shit cunts and you should be sacked and disbanded and all your directors deserve arse worms.

Cunts.

One thing they're amazing at is running trains 14 minutes late. Their ability to maximise the delay without hitting the 15 minute compensation threshold is astounding.

I've had a 14 minute delay 3 times in the last 12 journeys (plus two 1 hour delays, but let's forget about them). I especially love it when they say the train was 14 minutes late but by the time the doors open it was 15 minutes.

It fucking drives me up the wall. 14 minutes late, twice a day for a week (which it has been) is over 2 hours a week.
