Monday to Friday Southbound To Baker Street. Depart 1758 ( 2 minutes Earlier)Projected arrival time at say... Finchley Rd is 1844. I'm afraid all of my journeys arrived at 1850, so there's something wrong there me thinks. That'll be train 464, booked to depart Chesham at 1759 and arrive Finchley Road at 1852½. Monday to Friday Northbound to Chesham from Canary Wharf via Baker Street. Depart time from Baker Street 0728 ( Moved forward 6 mins from old T/T). Now here lies the problem , arrival at Chesham is a rather optimistic time of 0824. Well it arrived everyday at 0831. The Chesham train rarely gets to Chalfont and Latimer at its departure time of 0816, but when it did last Friday. The driver informed us that " We our held at a Red Signal awaiting our correct Departure Time " LOL we got back to Chesham at 0829. They must be working on a Different T/T. I agree that this train did arrive late. This does unfortunately happen on the Great British railways. Never will all trains run on time, but thankfully, the majority do. |

Not sure if serious , but thanks for confirming my theory that the Met T/T to Amersham and Chesham is a work of Fiction.  |

Actually, Fahad's information is taken directly from the timetable. So if you are indeed catching the train that you mentioned from Chesham and arriving at 18.50' you are actually 2 mins EARLY. Not sure where you"re getting the arrival time at 18.44 from? |
