You see ...I thought it was a later start on Sunday? You see at present the last tube train from Euston is around 1ish, so by 01:34, the time of the last mainline out of that hell hole, the station's shut up, locked off and maintenance have possession. If they run the tube an hour later, have they any assurance that London Midland will be running a later last train to take the SAs home? Those SAs that come in by LM have aggregated at Euston as a result of the convenience of it all, you see. The only hiccup is that on Saturday night / Sunday morning the last LM train is the 'Vomit Comet stopping at Wembley' at 02:34, which is a long wait with lairy drunk people throwing up everywhere and peeing all over the train whilst getting annoyed that it's not leaving for another hour and taking it out on anyone in a transport uniform... and then on Sunday morning, it's a drive into London as the first mainline train doesn't arrive until 30 minutes after start of shift. So I suppose a later finish on Saturday and later start on Sunday would work out OK with the mainline services as is, but Friday would be awful.TRThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18037601963025096788noreply@blogger.com
