Thameslink slashed key Harpenden services in the May 2018 timetable. We are campaigning to restore the service so many people rely on #saveHPDtrains

.Thameslink Now the government has removed the work from home instruction please can you tell us when you will restore the full timetable so that trains are not unnecessarily crowded?

Hi Thameslink, given the UK Prime Minister announcement today that it’s likely all Covid restrictions will go at the end of the month, will you be running a full timetable at or before that point?

Thameslink when will you reinstate a proper timetable for Harpenden trains? Are you checking the loadings to see how horrendously overcrowded your trains are again? Harpenden Thameslink Commuters

Chris Small Harpenden Thameslink Commuters I would be waiting a while if that were the case! Not sure if you realise that commuters use commuter trains to errrr commute to work … so I can’t “simply wait”.

Thameslink Harpenden Thameslink Commuters 2. Things. 1. Overhead wires are in stevenage and not on our line. 2. The driver has come on an said it’s a “minor incident” on our train so nothing on overhead wires and no proper updates and we are stuck in sidelines wondering when we will move. Tom Edwards

.Thameslink please can you explain why again tonight you are axing trains stopping at Harpenden? As you can see the 17.36 was pretty much on time… the next schedule train is 10 minutes delayed. EMT run trains that run fast to Luton and Bedford. Bim Afolami Department for Transport

Its very sad that someone was hit by a train near Gatwick, but all these hours later why is Thameslink still only running slow services on part of the route? You could have split the route to provide a service to the northern route like previous operators did.

Hey Thameslink can you let us know why the fast services at 17.36; 17.56 and 18:11 from St Pancras are all cancelled? A 60% cancellation rate at the peak of the evening rush hour? Can we have a 60% discount on our fares? #JustNotGoodEnough Bim Afolami Department for Transport

Hi Thameslink. Running fewer services does NOT help passengers. Please run as many services as you can and keep journey planners up to date. Or is this just a ploy to avoid paying compensation for people still paying full ticket prices for a reduced service? Bim Afolami Louise Haigh

So train is delayed… and you remove key stops thereby delaying people trying to just get home even further. Then next Bedford train is all stations. Harpenden Thameslink Commuters

Thameslink when will you finally install e ticket readers at Farringdon? The queues to get in and out of the station are horrendous as you need to find gate staff to open gate and scan your ticket with a handheld device! Today I missed my train as a result Harpenden Thameslink Commuters

So once again Thameslink demonstrates passenger interest come bottom of the pile. Train stopped for 90 minutes due to signal or points problems (they weren’t very clear which) then make it all stops to see if you can delay everyone by 2 hours.

Hi Thameslink Please can you justify the website saying you’re running a good service with the fact there are no services running north of St Albans until 20:51 as you’ve cancelled services due to planning errors?
