If National Rail is correct there aren't ANY direct trains to ED.

That's correct, as they're only operating out of four platforms for the rest of the day, the ED/PR trains are only operating to/from South Bermondsey.


Bar one train (1736 to West Croydon) you can travel to HOP and Forest Hill from London Bridge as normal during the evening peak or as I mentioned above, tickets are valid on the tube and Overground.

Platform 12 and 13 will be closed from now on as the new 14 and 15 open at the far end of the station.


It's also worth nothing that the cross platform footbridge will be shortened again with access between 1-10. For 11, 14 and 15, you'll need to walk up to the gateline and back along 8 or 9-10 to access it.

What a shambles Friday was, they had people all week giving out leafelts stating the reduced service adn providing the only trains times on Friday afternoon then during the day cancelled the ones that they said were running !!!


Another problem this morning meant I got the bus in, does anyone know of this was related to the weekend works and will the trains be runinng tonight ? No updates on National Rail site since this morning.

They said it was due to signal problems....but that is almost certainly a hangover from the weekend. Monday morning after weekend works is often a nightmare.


Worth checking before you set off home tonight.


New platforms some way further up the station as well. Need to factor in a good 30 seconds more for the dash from the tube plaforms past that TM Lewin and the South African biltong shop.

Cancellations announced for tonight on Southern, but nothing on the ED routes yet (http://www.southernrailway.com/southern/news/important-travel-advice-london-bridge-this-evening/).


Decided to defer the trip in by an hour this morning to allow the mess to settle but still got caught waiting outside LB for 30 minutes. Going to give it a miss and head home via Denmark Hill on the Thameslink and bus it to ED from there instead.

      Has Social Media Failed ?

      By Huguenot · Posted

      The EDF is social media, and it seems to have met its goals of connecting and engaging the local community. The 'media' part isn't a reference to the BBC, it refers to 'a substance that something grows in, lives in or moves through' as a plural of 'medium'. In the sense that the 'something' is people, then it does the job. Whe it comes to the BBC, the 'something' is information. For the most part the contribution has been positive. However, the downsides are driven by anonymity, and have allowed the worst of human nature to surface.

      We are in "one of UK's best places to live" 🤣

      I'm pretty sure it was still Le Chardon until 2008, maybe later. They also had The Green on East Dulwich Road, which is now Kokum. Service could be a bit 'French' in both places, but the food was good. It then had an incarnation selling quiches or something similar. It was a bit esoteric. The place where everything went against them was Saucy Chip, which was the old Curry Cabin. It's now Joe & The Juice. SE22 Bar was there before Franklin's, which I reckon opened just before the Millennium. I've got a vague recollection an (East) Dulwich Brasserie/Bistro or something similar around there at some point. The photo of the Dulwich Cafe above reminded me of when they changed the name and sign to 'Cafe Dulwich' to reflect how the area was going upmarket.  They didn't change the menu or decor at all. Just the sign.

      😥 Sorry, somehow my post above was duplicated instead of being merged with this one, and I can't delete all of the duplicated bits. Many moons ago, we used to have fairly regular "Forum Drinks", where forum members could meet up and get to know each other in real life. We met in a different local pub each time, and sometimes had sticky labels with our forum names on. A lot of those original people have moved away, but it has occasionally crossed my mind that it would be nice to start that up again and be able to put more faces to names (not that I ever remember either faces OR names)  Or maybe it is still happening but I'm kept out of the loop 🤣  Many of those pubs we used to go to have now changed out of all recognition, of course. Also there seem to be more families with young children in the area, for whom evening drinks would be difficult. I don't have time to do it, but if anybody else was up for organising it I'd be happy to help. It mainly involves deciding on a date, I imagine trying to get a rough idea of how many people would be interested,  and then booking a suitable sized space in a local pub and telling people about it on here  I don't know how it was arranged before, but maybe some of the longer standing forum users may know. I just used to turn up!

      Such a shame the Odeon and bowling at Surrey Quays has gone

      Yup, it's 15 year project (I think some elements of it started a year or so ago).  Imagine how annoyed Earl will be when they find out that the new Teaco superstore planned has underground parking for 530 cars....
