A great example of the fragility of cast iron! It's brittle!
Unfortunately a road vehicle struck the bridge at Croxted Lane this morning, causing some damage as can be seen here. Our response staff attended, and a block has been placed on all lines through Herne Hill which has caused some disruption to @TLRailUK and @Se_Railway services.

England have held talks with Thomas Tuchel about becoming the next England manager 🗣️ @RorySmith sparked a debate saying appointing a foreign coach is 'cheating' from the FA 👀 Do you agree? 👇 #BBCFootball #England #ThreeLions
@zzzoooman But that's the point I was trying to make, these 4 don't have any shareholders?
@zzzoooman Well yeah, the union relations is a different issue. And I agree a subsidy of £500m is a heck of a lot, and hasn't changed a great deal. So regardless of the intricacies of the current system it's fair to say it's not working properly!
@zzzoooman You do realise Northern (actually all 4 listed above) has been operated by the government (albeit at arms length via the DfT and operator of last resort) since 2020, right?
But did you listen to anyone who rides a bike? 🤷🏻♂️

@HardHatAlex I would have thought to put such a structure in place you'd need at least a pair of nighttime closures or a nighttime contraflow? Which begs the question if it is acceptable twice why not more?
Seems that all cycle paths must be in the Netherlands apparently 🤔

Niche tweet: has anyone else noticed that the ‘o’ in ‘online’ on WhatsApp has now been capitalised to ‘Online’… No idea why this is irritating me so much 🤣
@SignalstoDanger To all intents that already exists (LCV etc), but clearly more still needs to be done
This is a fantastic diversion from what I should actually be doing this afternoon and also totally bizarre!

@latifnasser This would make a great episode of @99piorg
This is why air passenger duty (and/or the international equivalent) needs to be well into 3 figures per flight, this should a) not be possible and b) prohibitively expensive
Cairo Airport. The Saudia check-in desks. The reason I'm here is because I found an insane €350 business class deal from Cairo to Jeddah. But wait, that's not cheap for a relatively short flight you say? Correct. But Saudia forgot to restrict the allowed routings on this fare..!
Does the president of the USA not understand how inflation works?!
Let me be clear to any corporation that hasn’t brought their prices back down even as inflation has come down: It’s time to stop the price gouging. Give American consumers a break.
