>Kudos to Network Rail. This kind of jingoistic comment demonstrates how a tactical post with some technical information, can massively skew judgement. According to Network Rail, the routes in question are not only one of the most congested in the country, but have been mired with problems of under-investment and lack of desire to ease the bottleneck. Some of the routes connect salubrious stock-broker belts with the City of London, in addition to Brighton & Hove, East Sussex. Other routes traversing East Croydon, acting as a hub, also serve the mainline stations of London Victoria and London Bridge to (London) Gatwick ─ the second busiest airport in the country. I wonder how many people will be forgiving or cheering for Network Rail and handing out accolades for their neatly constructed blogs, when they miss their flight or arrive to work late 'due to signalling problems'.
