Pre-Match Thread Daggers v Southend United - NO TUBE SERVICE!!!!!!!!!

[WickfordShrimper]

Used the bus from Romford when I have gone in the past, no issues at all, the bus stop is right outside the ground. Ideal for anybody who uses the Southend Vic line.

Yeap no problem on our line :-)

Prob jump in a taxi...

Reckon there will be some big queues at the local bus stops after the game!.

How is the parking near the ground, are there lots of side streets or is it all permit holders etc.???

Hi All,
The Transport for London website, Mansion House tube station noticeboard and also Fenchurch St display board all say Sat 19th trains suspended between Tower Hill and Upminster Saturday after 2000. Seems to me that means they're running before 8pm

Thank God, finally somebody has cleared this up :smiles:

Did some people fail at GCSE English? Please note the use of the full stop:

DISTRICT LINE: Saturday 19 and Sunday 20 November, suspended between Tower Hill and Upminster. Saturday, after 2000, and Sunday, before 1300, also suspended between Wimbledon and Putney Bridge. Rail replacement buses operate.

It does not read:

I love this thread..it does make me laugh.

This thread cracks me up. I daresay quite a few will be waiting around on Upminster station looking confused on Saturday!

 

[Napster]

Is the tube running on Saturday?

For those who have mentioned cabbing it from Dagenham Dock station, there's no cab rank there - it's in a bit of a wasteland by the Ford factory. You'll have to phone one in advance otherwise it could be a long walk...

Hi everybody this is my first post and hopefully it is a helpful one as I have been reading the zone for ages and supported Southend for over 50 years.

Here we go then. From my reading of the TFL site it appears that the district line is running upto 8:00 p.m. on Saturday evening and this is hopefuuly the way I will get to the match.

Check out the TFL website it states service suspended between Tower Hill and Upminister AFTER 20.00 hours.

Will also check with a mate who works for TFL as well.and will let you all know

Tbh thats how i read it a couple of week ago when someone posted a link to the TFL website, but everyone seemed so adamant the tubes weren't running I just went with the flow!

 

[Crawliano]

Just out of curiosity, I'm looking on the TFL website at the moment and I can't see any mention of when the SZ Eggheads show is on. Does anybody know?

 

[The Turpinator]

The situation is the District Line is CLOSED between Tower Hill & Upminster ALL WEEKEND.

It is also closed between Putney Bridge & Wimbledon after 2000 on Saturday & before 1300 on Sunday.

The Hammersmith & City Line is also closed between Moorgate & Barking ALL WEEKEND.

End of!

 

[Col.U. Mad]
