@ChimeraX2021 @Se_Railway At terminal stations, platform staff shine a light to one another to let each other know the train is good to go. Someone will then control the signal box instructing the driver to close the doors, then again to move. Obviously, someone must’ve had too much shovel last night.

[Ben Jobson @BenJobson4]

@Se_Railway 1750 from LBG now delayed for no apparent reason. Not even a cannon St line train. Honestly… how hard is it for platform staff to flash a light to let the trains go in a timely manner?

[Ben Jobson @BenJobson4]

@Se_Railway Do you know if this will be open in the morning?

[Ben Jobson @BenJobson4]

@FernScottt @Se_Railway Tube staff let me through with my ticket. Though it wouldn’t shock me if they haven’t been told about ticket acceptance. Liz line staff should be aware. Either way, I’m going through. Guess it’s up to them if they want it the easy way or the hard way. I’m not fussed.

[Ben Jobson @BenJobson4]

@Se_Railway @stevefarnworth Wholehearted lie. You let a train leave Charing Cross about 3 mins ago.

[Ben Jobson @BenJobson4]

@Se_Railway @economichaircut They’re not delayed. They’re suspended. Please do not gaslight people and let them get stuck with no means of alternative routes.

[Ben Jobson @BenJobson4]

@economichaircut @Se_Railway So they’ve let them run and get stuck in between stations so no one can get off. They never fucking learn do they?

[Ben Jobson @BenJobson4]

@Se_Railway What services are being diverted? Is anything running via London Bridge at all? We are on a train due to leave Charing Cross imminently. Trains are departing but if you’re going to let them get stuck in no mans land with no means to run them that’s really poor.

[Ben Jobson @BenJobson4]

@TLRailUK Within 5 mins of arriving back in the UK from St Pancras, I just knew I could trust you guys to ruin my day.

[Ben Jobson @BenJobson4]

@TLRailUK fancy departing this today at some point?

[Ben Jobson @BenJobson4]

@Se_Railway Great, thanks

[Ben Jobson @BenJobson4]

@Se_Railway hello. I need to get to St Pancras tomorrow to get a Eurostar. I am not sure if my London terminals season ticket will be valid. Some websites are saying yes, some no. It’s valid from New Eltham. Do you know if my smart card will work?

[Ben Jobson @BenJobson4]

@Se_Railway Shall I use my ticket to CTK then? I know I can use it there as I go there a fair bit. Then I guess tap back in from CTK to St Pancras. Saves me buying a ticket all the way from New Eltham

[Ben Jobson @BenJobson4]

I should add. My plan is to change at LBG and jump on the Thameslink.

[Ben Jobson @BenJobson4]

@Se_Railway They were locked. Finally opened them after waiting forever.

[Ben Jobson @BenJobson4]

@Se_Railway we are at London Bridge on a train with an issue. Instead of leaving us in a holocaust like furnace, please can someone tell the driver to have a modicum of humanity and let the doors open, given we are literally at the platform? 1750 LBG-NEH

[Ben Jobson @BenJobson4]

@aakinyemi63 @razzi2k7 @Arsenal What do you want him to do exactly? Wipe the arses of everyone who’s been to a game? He’s a busy businessman - a businessman who’s invested heavily because he wants to see us succeed. I cannot understand, whatever shortcomings they had previously, why they’re still attacked now.

[Ben Jobson @BenJobson4]

@rafi_sadique @Arsenal Was the £400m last summer not enough?! Josh has backed Arteta massively this season - rest is up to the squad. I’m sure we will have another massive budget this summer as well. Blaming the owners for shortcomings won’t wash anymore - this isn’t the 2010’s. We’ve been backed.

[Ben Jobson @BenJobson4]

@razzi2k7 @Arsenal You would be naive if you don’t acknowledge the club has gone in the right direction since Josh became the main face of ownership. The club has spent shitloads of money on player acquisition - style of play is on the coaching staff. This isn’t Chelsea - coaches decide how we play

[Ben Jobson @BenJobson4]

@its_amg8 @Arsenal Silent ownership but sanctioned £400m or thereabouts to bolster our team to title winning capability. They’ve let Arteta and Berta run the club because they trust them and they know that they are football people who know what’s best. What do you want? Chelsea’s ownership model?
