Today so far seems to be mostly about sitting on trains which aren’t moving or are being boarded by armed police. Such a joy every time #southernfail

Southern are also about to ban passengers on all services as each one is a security risk.
Spokesbod said "These people could carry anything on to our trains and station platforms, we need to keep our staff safe by banning people. They could be anyone!"

It never fails to amaze me that the number of delays and cancellations on #SouthernFail and #Thameslink go up, each year, in proportion to the %age increase in fares.

Driver announces "disregard that incorrect info, no stop at Horley, next stop will be Gatwick". Train is at Gatwick. #southernfail

Thought I'd try & miss the commuter crush. Wrong. 12 carriages of sardines, sod doing this malarkey daily #SouthernFail

Attention: Due to industrial action, there will be no Southern England between January 9-14 #southernFail

"We urge the union to think again & work with us & move forward together. Our door remains open." Er, isn't that the problem?! #SouthernFail

Business & People may fail.

What a privileged and cozy life you must all lead when a train strike is "hell" "misery" "torture" #southernfail #southernstrike

What a ridiculous society we are that allows greed to make millions travel that far every day just to do their job of work! #southernFail

#southernFail for when it's quicker to walk home than get the train

My son is experiencing his first tortuous evening journey home on @TLRailUK. Modern rite of passage with #southernFail

Any chance you could kit the roofs of your trains out for additional standing capacity please, @SouthernRailUK? #southernfail

I managed to get home eventually on .@SouthernRailUK, only by luck and bloody mindedness though. #southernfail

Sorry, I’ll stop tweeting about trains now… #trainbore #southernfail

Well no #netflix #togo for me. Not enough room in this sardine tin to open my bag… #southernfail #shortformation

Ooh, exciting! The commute will never be the same again! #netflix #togo #southernfail

You have got to be joking... // BBC News - Southern strike: Drivers vote in favour of action #southernfail

Can you get the @RMTunion to arrange some more strikes @SouthernRailUK? Trains were good yesterday, utter shambles today. #southernfail

Apparently the best way to prevent overcrowding at Clapham Junction is to refuse to allow people to leave… #southernfail #strike #doh

Felt thoroughly militant-stood my ground and refused to be moved. They relented and let me out! #weshallnotbemoved #southernfail

Staff at Clapham Junction wouldn’t let me leave the station this morning. Why? ‘Strike’. The answer to everything these days! #southernfail

Another utterly shambolic evening @SouthernRailUK. How on earth can this be allowed to continue?! #SouthernFail #BringBackBR

10 @SouthernRailUK trains this week as usual. None on time as usual. £3k/year well spent. #southernfail
