About Friday afternoons that causes the Jubilee Line to implode with monotonous regularity?
Once again there's been either a points and/or signal failure at Stratford that's shut the line down and as a result an entire trainload of people including me have just been slung off at North Greenwich; and with nothing running in either direction I can't even get back to Canary Wharf to get the DLR.
Update 1 @ 1719:
Another train has just pulled in and emptied out.
Update 2 @ 1722:
We've just been told there's a train due here shortly going back towards Canary Wharf.
Update 3 @ 1732: currently heading back towards Canary Wharf.
Update 4 @ 1734: back at Canary Wharf. That's an hour to go nowhere.
Update 5 @ 1743: now on a packed DLR train with someone in terminal need of a shower and a can of deodorant.
Update last @ 1806: just departed Stratford the 1806 Ipswich train.
This will be the main route to the Olympics next year. God help us all.
