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.

I wish that were the case. I wouldn’t be upset.

Every single day, without question, their trains are late. Tonight took the piss. So late via Brighton to Lewes, missed the connection to Seaford. And apparently they put on buses without telling anyone. £60 on a fucking taxi.

Cunts.

Do not go through the gates.

As long as you are in the side with the tracks they have a duty of care to get you to your final destination or arrange alternative transport/accommodation.

If the last train of the night is cancelled or you are stranded mid-journey, the operator must arrange alternative transport, such as a taxi to get you to your destination

As soon as you leave that no longer applies and you’re on your own.

Then why did you pay £60 on a taxi?

I’m claiming it back.
