Don't Make Me Come Down There

I’m actually furious. I’m actually totally and utterly bloody furious.

Yesterday I sat on a packed train in Liverpool St station for an hour on the hottest day of the year.

It was so hot that people were actually fainting and had to be taken off from the train.

And again this morning we were stuck outside of Bethnal Green for half an hour on an equally packed train on an only marginally less warm day of the year.

The problem, apparently, is that it’s too hot.

Yes, I said it’s too hot.

Which once again has caused overhead line problems at Bethnal Green.

For those of you who regularly use the Enfield Town line you’ll know that there are always overhead line problems at Bethnal Green, in both the winter and the summer.

Always.

So just to offer some random layperson’s advice to the strategic experts at Network Rail and National Express: In the winter it’s cold and in the summer it’s hot. Plan. Accordingly. Motherfuckers.
