Is this place slow?

My wife was stuck on a train around 6pm @ crystal palace. the train line was shut down, but no news on here. surely this would be the place to give a heads up?

Not strictly true that this didn’t affect other services. I must have been heading south at just the wrong time. Nothing going further than New Cross (Gate). Took a bus home.

I would recommend that your wife download one of many travel apps - I use Citymapper. This forum can perform many wonders, but updating traffic status faster that the extensive London travel information system Is not one of them. That’s why I don’t post here when I hit a jam. Hints and tips for Commutes to work whether by bike, rail or foot, particularly when faced with sinkholes are posted on several threads and are hugely valuable.
