About three times when I went on the Piccadilly, it had symbols instead of letters, so the sentences looked really odd.

Oh gosh! I cant believe I made that mistake with the class. My knowledge of things like this has decreased ever since I got into year 9!
What I meant by annoying was like 'Come on Southeastern, get it fixed'

Hi all,
On every Southeastern Class 456 trains that has their DMI's working, do you find it annoying when the train has passes a station and then it keeps on showing that it will be calling at the station when the DMI has the calling at announcements?

Hi all,
Ive noticed that sometimes, trains come in to Bank at Platform 9 (which I think is the Shadwell bound platform) When the trains come in, the driver does the horn quite loudly
Does anyone know why they sometimes come in to P9??
Thanks, Uzair

Is it me, or has Shepherd's Bush London Overground station already opened?
Why does it say Shepherd's Bush - opens late 2008 on a 2010 map?

Oh okay
Thanks for the reply guys.
I always thought it had something to do with terminating at kind of rare station such as Embankment or South Kensington,

I heard the Thank you for travelling on the Jubilee Line announcement yesterday while I was recording a journey from Canada Water to Canary Wharf. The please keep your belongings with you at all times is also not rare. I have that in my video as well.

Had a great driver today from Westminster to Earls Court. I think his name was Bob. At Westminster he said " Ladies and Gentlemen, there is more than one door on this train and maybe if you go along the train, you might be able to find more doors" Between Westminster and St James's Park, he told us that the oldest part of the District Line was between Westminster and South Kensington. Between Victoria and Sloane Square, he was like " Today is smiley day (or something like that) (then some other stuff) and so, if you see someone smiling at you in the carriage, smile back at them" Then some guy started smiling at me lol. Between South Kensington and Gloucester Road, he said some stuff which I couldn't hear and I heard " Mr Gloucester went to Gloucester" Between Gloucester Road and Earl's Court, he said " The next station is Earl's Court, where I will be getting off . Also Ladies and Gentlemen, you might be interested to know that the first escalator on the London Underground was installed at Earl's Court on the 19th of October 1911. It was from the District Line to the Piccadilly Line. But the public of London were too afraid to use it, so a man with a wooden leg went on the escalator up and down, up and down to show the public that it was safe. But everyone thought, how did he loose his leg in the first place? At Earl's Court, you can change for the Piccadilly Line and District Line service to other destinations. Please take your belongings, your children, your rubbish and your smile when you leave the train. Thank you Ladies and Gentlemen, you have been very nice. Have a nice evening, and have a nice weekend. Thank you." What a great driver!

Hi all,
If the Victoria Line is suspended at the moment between Walthamstow Central and Blackhorse Road due to a fire alert, are trains running to the latter and running empty to the former?
Or are all trains from Brixton terminating at Seven Sisters?
Thanks, Uzair

Hi all,
How come the on the home page of the TfL website, in the Service updates box on the right hand side of the page, it used to say East London Line Bus service and now it has been removed?
Have all the replacement bus services been withdrawn?
