I really can't see any material change. There's a minor change to a few southbound trains from London Bridge heading round to Victoria but that's it. Agree that services have taken another turn for the worse recently. My personal pet peeve is the short notice cancellation of late running services which are run fast from Crystal Palace to LB despite being scheduled to stop at Sydenham, FH, HOP & Brockley. This is utterly infuriating as it is cynically done to massage Southerns figures and save them money but causes knock on overcrowding on Overground and other Southern trains between CP and LB.

I'd be interested to request data (under freedom of information if necessary) to see how often they've employed this tactic in the last year...
