@December2019Changes hey ho... Here we go again.

Were you affected by the recent rail timetabling chaos? We’d like you to send us your experiences via Twitter. Our Chair @LilianGreenwood explains how 👇 Terms and conditions here: bit.ly/2Lwj0mb More about our inquiry here: bit.ly/2yruoxN
@garius He was just trying to get a train back to Epsom too.
@ZackHallam @gvrua @northernassist Sprinters are @northernassist's Pokemon
@ArrivaRRfailz It's pretty much the same as May 2018 so 0.05/10 for the very few corrections made. Everything lining up for another major clusterf*** in December though with delayed changes across the network backing of to all be unleashed at once
@HPDCommuters @TLRailUK @BimAfolami Is this @TLRailUK failing to deliver another new timetable?
@HPDCommuters @TLRailUK @BimAfolami Aren't there 10 timetabled direct trains between 6and 7 pm now? Looking at Farringdon. Is this transient or permanent?
Chris Grayling throws milkshake at himself and misses newsthump.com/2019/05/21/chr…
Not content with removing a third of key services from Harpenden, @TLRailUK show their contempt for their passengers by dropping another service. Good luck getting home #saveHPDtrains @BimAfolami
@Clinnick1 @greateranglia Yet again favouring small numbers of occasional inter city passengers over larger volumes of daily commuters. @RailDeliveryGrp needs to shift focus to benefit the majority of passengers not the most lucrative routes
It's Timetable change day but most along the Redhill route won't notice this year after last years disaster. Just a few minor tweaks Monday to Friday. Good news is 17:21 and 17:51 from London Bridge are 12 coaches from today. No improvements on connections to Reigate/Tonbridge
@BlueGaynor We home the classes of last 12 months have been taken tomorrow too.

Train timetable changes: Rail passengers urged to check journeys as major shakeup comes into effect simplenews.co.uk/general/train-…
@mummygirl Much unchanged. New class 331s were authorised in Feb, 195s going through driver training so expect introduction later this year. NR announced a few weeks back they now have enough diesels following further transfers (ScotRail) Still no Chester-Leeds service though. Possibly Dec.
@dougmorton From tomorrow according to WTT
'Major' rail changes in timetable overhaul bbc.in/2HBijr3
@RailDeliveryGrp And timetable at Leeds & York more of a shambles than @May2018Changes . Loads of clashes, needless variations and one station losing its hourly @northernassist service in ONE direction only after decades. So much for lessons learnt @railandroad @Transport4North @TransportFocus
We're getting ready to launch our first ever #TransportJustice documentary, on its way to you in just two weeks. If you're in Greater Manchester and would like to participate, join us at our preview screening in Bolton tomorrow: facebook.com/events/2791390…
Excellent (Almost) new Sunday service along Redhill Route starts Sunday Earlswood & Salfords return to half hourly at last Horley gets better too Redhill gets 6 (yes SIX) per hour Reigate/Tonbridge same BUT - poor old Merstham gets an effective hourly service - needs improvement
@crl_live @northernassist @foscl @setcarrailway @networkrail @ACoRPOffice @BTPLancs @Kazza_belle Will @northernassist be cancelling most of them again this year?
