Title: Re: made me laugh Post by: inspector_blakey on June 01, 2011, 22:54:30 Putting my "Eeyore" hat on, yes it's amusing on one level but publicly blaming another company doesn't really give the punters a very good impression of a railway system working together does it...? (BTW, even if it was back in the days of British Rail I don't think blaming the signaller for incompetence would have been any better!)

(BTW, even if it was back in the days of British Rail I don't think blaming the signaller for incompetence would have been any better!) I regret to say that we "punters" aren't under any illusions about "a railway system working together". I did like one of the clips that's flagged up at the end - the time-lapse of Network Rail doing the Thameslink (are we still calling it that?) bridge over Borough High St, at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7SAoV-4FKns&feature=related (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7SAoV-4FKns&feature=related). That is particularly impressive. Title: Re: made me laugh Post by: Henry on June 05, 2011, 11:29:35 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a2QOQs87hN8&feature=player_embedded
