Rail service is a joke
I dont work in London all the time, but some projects require me to travel from Bracknell to London.
Why is it that only twice in the last couple of months have any of the trains I have to get been on time ?? Yesterday was a corker though. First time this month I had to travel to Victoria.
The train from Bracknell (Martins Heron) over 30 minutes late, which meant I was about 45 mins late for work. The train from Clapham Junction to Bracknell on the way home was delayed for 15 mins, then cancelled without any warning or explanation. I ended up having to get a train to Aldershot which was 35 minutes after the Bracknell train, and get off at Ascot. The train from Ascot to Bracknell was then delayed for 25 minutes, so more standing in the cold.
All that and they have the audacity to charge me 21 quid for a Travelcard.
I know i am not the only one that suffers but it does my head in. I have complained to the relevant operator, for what its worth...
