@nationalrailenq @GatwickExpress @SouthernRailUK @TLRailUK Now that the rail line appears reopened (albeit disrupted) can you please tell us what the actual problem was?

[Andy Taggart @andytaggart]

@TLRailUK We just pulled into east Croydon from LB 48 mins late.

[Andy Taggart @andytaggart]

@SouthernRailUK We've just pulled into east Croydon from London bridge 48m late, so that's the current delay.

[Andy Taggart @andytaggart]

@nationalrailenq Can you give an ETA on the 0800 Haywards heath to Burgess hill please? Is it a 5 min delay? 15? All your boards just say "delayed"

[Andy Taggart @andytaggart]

@networkrail our train driver heading south towards Gatwick just told us the chaos is due to "heat affecting the line". As far as I'm aware it's about 25 degrees outside. Has UK rail now got so bad that your rails can't cope with 25C?

[Andy Taggart @andytaggart]

@sewateruk any update for the people experiencing zero water whatsoever to their properties for 15 hours now in Haywards Heath, please?

[Andy Taggart @andytaggart]

@TLRailUK Sorry, I mean we are being held at South Croydon heading towards E.C.

[Andy Taggart @andytaggart]

@TLRailUK It's between South Croydon and East Croydon as we are being held at East Croydon. Can you advise what the nature of the obstruction is please?

[Andy Taggart @andytaggart]

@TLRailUK Is that honestly your response? "The train was cancelled because we had no people to run it"? Why not? Also it's interesting to see you don't care about your own peak hour bike travel rules.

[Andy Taggart @andytaggart]

@TLRailUK how many trains can you cancel in one day? The 1735 from London bridge to Brighton cancelled. Again. A woman nearly fainting due to the crush. what's the reason for the cancellation?

[Andy Taggart @andytaggart]

Oh and while we're at it, how is the lady in this carriage allowed on with her bike during rush hour, taking up space and three seats? There are enough staff at stations, why was she let on?

[Andy Taggart @andytaggart]

@TLRailUK I'm afraid this doesn't make much sense to me, Will. My question still stands. Why couldn't the original service run as planned towards London Bridge by being manually cleared to leave the platform, if the signalling problem was only affecting that platform?

[Andy Taggart @andytaggart]

@TLRailUK any way you can explain why the other trains from Haywards heath coming from brighton (e.g. 0649 thameslink, 0706 southern) are on time, yet the 0701 thameslink is mysteriously delayed by a "signalling failure", then cancelled?

[Andy Taggart @andytaggart]

@TLRailUK Thanks Amy. So if the signal was only affecting one platform, can the train not be permitted to leave "manually", by simply being authorised to pass the signal at red, or a non-functioning signal? (Rather than just letting it sit there, then leave late and miss stations etc.

[Andy Taggart @andytaggart]

@TLRailUK Thanks Will. All the services are duplicated this morning on the National rail website. You may want to let them know.

[Andy Taggart @andytaggart]

@TLRailUK this is helpful! Can you please clarify if the 0800 Haywards heath to burgess hill is on time

[Andy Taggart @andytaggart]

@TLRailUK no info on X about this this morning?

[Andy Taggart @andytaggart]

@michael_taggart Thing is, it's not called Twitter any more. It's called X. Or Y. Something like that.

[Andy Taggart @andytaggart]

@frankietaggart @ATRightMovies I personally think the sequel "An American Werewolf in Paris" was far superior in almost every way.
