London Overground are only operating services south of Shadwell again this weekend calling at all stations to/from Crystal Palace and West Croydon at the reduced level of 4 trains an hour.
Southern Railways are hardly running any services at all due to engineering work between East Croydon and Caterham on Saturday and it appears none on Sunday even though the National Railways engineering works website shows the London Bridge - Caterham via Sydenham service which would normally provide 2 of our 4 trains an hour as operating between London Bridge and Purley. No mention is made of the London Bridge - Crystal Palace service at all! As there are no trains operating in or out of Victoria on Sunday and a lot of services are being rerouted to London Bridge I suspect the long distance services are being prioritised over the “suburban services” ! I have queried this with Southern and will amend this post if anything gets added.
Saturday
