What a amazing moment at London Charing Cross this afternoon, 2 iconic trains side by side to each other, @SteveWhiteRail would like this!
Before & after...
Captured Hither Green's old footbridges (from the new one) before they both got removed from the station. It sure looks & feels different.
Onto the 4 new lifts and 2 new station entrances opening in March 2027!
New Footbridge at Hither Green Station is now open!
Great milestone moment between @Se_Railway & @NetworkRailSE. Loads of space, feels wider, new smell to it, announcements while your on the footbridge and a new link way between platforms 4 & 5!
I approve 👌👏
Hither Green Station Update!
Tomorrow (Friday 2nd Oct) the Brand New Footbridge Station will open for the public to use, great milestone moment between @Se_Railway & @NetworkRailSE. March 2027 will be when the lifts & new station entrance open!
SL12 started you say, been on it today. Great to have another Superloop Route, pros on cons below 👇
Pros: Better than the SL11, fast, quick, new buses, LED blinds, benefiting.
Cons: wrong ibus destinations, skips Romford Market, traffic build up into Romford.
7/10 rating – at Lewisham, London
I know I lot about how Southeastern works & runs, but even I don't know what the replacement will be but I'm very excited to find out, and I'm confident Steve & his team have made the perfect choice 👇 – at Lewisham, London
The Networker fleet replacement looks set to be ordered at the end of the year.

Good starters as these trains where the 1st 'Ironing Board' style seats, but an opportunity missed to strip out 1st class! More overcrowding into the future will be continuing then. – at Hédervár, Magyarország
SE Class 376 Update!
The refurbishment has now reached the halfway stage! 17 units are now fully refurbished with 17 left to go. 2 are currently in Grove Park Depot with work in progress! Great work achieved soo far, looking forward to seeing the rest completed 👍😁 – at Hédervár, Magyarország
So I feel like it's been 2 TOCs at very different ends of the scale today...
Thameslink: Late, Broken Trains, lack of communication, no idea on what's happening, frustrated passengers.
Southeastern: On-time, working trains, very informative, happy customers. – at Lewisham, London
Hi @Se_Railway
Just wanted to give a shout out to the driver on the 17:11 Cannon Street to Dartford via Lewisham & Sidcup. On-time running, very informative announcement at Lewisham and a lovely clean 376 back home. Made me happy after a long day out, smiles all round 😁 – at Lewisham, London
Wow! This was worth the wait, brand new EMR Class 360 interiors are coming very soon! Looking amazing, well done to everyone at EMR who were involved with it all. A worthwhile upgrade 👌👍
Thanks to @EastMidRailway for the chance to look at the first refurbished 360 (107) at Kettering today before the set enters service next month. 360109 has also now been done and all 21 should be done by mid 2027. Its a real step change with 2+2 seating replacing the original 3+2
Well here comes a Brand New Chapter in our Railways, 1st train in full Great British Railway's & Colours is a Southern Class 387.
So 1st the 108 now it's the 358! @TfL how can you be running buses with faulty Ibus screens, this is beyond a joke, passengers need to see the stops on the bus. Where in 2026 and it is simply NOT acceptable. Please get these screens fixed. Not good at all.
What a beautiful & iconic sound. Great time at Rainham (London/Essex) with @jc_transport_ especially when we captured a 373 at High Speed 😁
Have you ever been and use the toilets on-board a Thameslink Class 700 and seen loads of graphite on the walls & ceiling of it!? Well that'll be a thing of the past as brand new Thameslink branded vinyls are be installed on the walls & ceiling! 700 059 has that example!
Hi @greateranglia I had 2 amazing trips on the 745 working the 08:30 Liverpool Street to Norwich & 755 today working the 11:27 Norwich to Stansted Airport. Amazing trains you have & the staff on-board those 2 services were exceptional. Thank you for those amazing services 😁👍
WOW! The Brand New Footbridge at Hither Green is looking amazing, well done to everyone who worked on installing this over the Bank Holiday Weekend. Well done as well to everyone involved in the project to deliver 'Step Free Access' at HGR. Looking good soo far! 👍
RIP Joey 🙏 had some amazing chats with this guy and he was such a caring person. I'll miss you soo much mate 😢💔
Many of you may have encountered on social media a young man, and ray of sunshine, called Joey Andrews (joey_wanders on X and Insta) pictured below).
It is with heartfelt so that today I've have found out that he had sadly and passed away in his sleep on 21 February 2026

SWR have announced to withdraw all the Class 458s. Ridiculous as they rejected the 707s (even tho SE took them). They spent £45 million refurbishing the 442s only to withdraw those. The Class 701s are years late. Now £25 million down the drian now the 458s will leave.
