For Northerners:

Imagine the worst, most tourist tatty bit of your nearest city at its busiest time of the year. The Shambles in York for example.

That's the bit of London you're seeing on your day trip shopping and to the theatre.

Yes it's awful, overpriced and unfriendly. It's not accurately us

“A total of 10,056 drivers hold a valid licence despite having at least 12 points”

And one 26 year old has 176 points. That’s ~ 20 points per year of driving.

And we 🚶‍♀️🚲 share the roads with them.

One of the personally lamentable aspects of modern train describers on the Tube was the loss off the ‘First Train Out’ light-boxes at terminals and junctions. Simple, intuitive and easy to read from far away. Just Uxbridge and Earl’s Court operate now. Illustrative comparison below: flic.kr/p/7cTH3t

The Central Line Improvement Project moved a step forward today with the 1st run in passenger service.

New AC traction equipment, lighting, flooring, moquette + RVAR complaint CIS, colour contrast and 4 multi-use/wheelchair bays all help to breathe new life into the 1992 stock.

Deleted the app recently because of the amount of brain rot being suggested on my timeline on this very issue. Absolute dregs of the internet
