    A signalling failure at L*ton (to add to all their other failings).

    "Absolute fiasco here at St Albans. Trains cancelled. Platforms crammed. Barriers closed. Staff abusive. Angry passengers kicking down gates."

    "[Thameslink Rail] how do you continuously get away with it? Absolute shambles of an organisation."

    I wish you'd signed off your post with 'This is Clive, reporting live for WFC Forums News, in Havana.'

    True, Clive. And Government-run Network Rail too.

    But we Snorbanians can turn ugly when things don't go our way

    I wonder what % of people really need to be in the office in 2018? In my place nearly everyone could work from home yet the bosses like to see "bums on seats".

    It is often more productive to be together at work and people who work at home all the time do go quite mad, but five days a week? No way. Three max.

    Just imagine if the trains were stopped and St Albans ran out of olives on the same day. Carnage.

    That looks one hell of an angry mob. Even the queue has gone a bit skew whiff
