Yes, I had guessed that but it did look very odd!

I can just imagine you telling your trainers that you're the boss - just look at the web site! Anyhow, good luck with the course and I hope you enjoy the job when you 'officially' start it.

You never know, one day you may put that on the "Southern" railway web site - officially!

Is that really East Croydon? It's sure changed since the last time I went through it! All I recognize is Shooters Hill on the horizon!

Yep, no steps to the platforms anymore, its ramps, and its terrifying when you're walking up and people are running down.

Oh and theres trams as well lol.

The lift does it in 13 seconds from Ground to 13th so I guess thats lucky but going down it did it in 10 seconds before going out of service which was unlucky.

the lifts in there are great. I've been up to see atkins on 15/16th floors a few times, and it's better than alton towers...
