SRUG reviews local rail services

eileen — Sun, 28 Mar 2010 02:01:08 +0000

Dear rail user

Some us are reviewing the rail services that go through our local stations. This is to identify ideas about changes and irnprovements that could guide our responses to future consultations, or our own initiatives. (This is in addition to whatever we manage to achieve or not on the South London Line - see at end for latest news on this.)

Our current review includes:
* all services to and from the station(s) you use to Victoria, Blackfriars or London Bridge,
* services out of your stations southwards away from central London,
* first and last trains of the day,
* frequencies of peak services mornings and evenings,
* frequencies of off-peak services

FIRST PUBLIC MEETING
SRUG held a lively and informative public meeting on 17th November 2008, about a range of issues facing local rail users. These included the imminent closure of the East Croydon-London Bridge service, the planned closure of the South London Line in 2012, the delays to the planning for the East London Line Extension through Peckham Rye to Clapham Junction, and the state of local stations. Over 70 people were present along with a representative from each of 6 railway companies, and two passenger watchdog organisations. It was a very fruitful discussion which has provided the basis for effective future dialogue. See here for minutes and web links including diagrams and meeting presentations.
