Most of the chaos is caused by carrier bags blowing onto the overheads, complete job stop when that happens

I thought they'd get you working out on the line.

Mind you, you can't tell the difference between the front and back of the train

Didn't have any trouble at all, thought it was gonna be hell but got to Fenchurch street started walking towards the turnstiles they then announce that the train on platform 2 was leaving and going to Shoebury via laindon so we start walking down platform to find some space on train first few carriages were stuffed so about to give up then look at next carriage and can see lots of empty seats quickly jump on train and sit down RESULT!!!

They then announce that its gonna stop at a few extra stations and get back to benfleet in about an hour. Not bad considering

If that other stupid timetable had still been in place would prob still be at fenchurch street now!!!!
