Random fact- Ramsgate has highest combination of trains to London. More than any other station. Around 9 I think

Those service diagrams are a masterpiece.

[Fabian.Gray.]

Great video as always, however I would love to see SWR, thameslink, southern or LNER 👀

[ChetNotJet]

Please could you do a video on cross country as they don’t go through London, I think they could be interesting

[mattyswainloughborugh]

Good information on this video.

I'd love to see LNER, EMR and Cross Counrty

[feeshyman]

Thank you for doing this it is a really helpful map and I have learnt many things that I have not known before. Keep making these videos I love them

[dansoper]

I’ve just discovered your TOC explained videos. These are really well done!

[MarioDSLife]

Well done video! I always get confused about the train lines that go to Dartford, and which trains choose to stop at where on the Chatham Main Line between Rochester and Bromley South. Also I don’t think any Javelin trains go from Strood to Ashford Int’l, but some do go to Maidstone West.

Fantastic video, love the interactive map with all of the lines 🙏

[PatrickMapper]

I really like southeastern, the routes through London as well as high speed are interesting. Might be because I’m living in Kent though

[samuelwade]

Would be great to see a video on Greater Anglia :)

[tsungiraichiramba]

Sittingbourne to Sheerness alternates between an hourly and half hourly service

1:18 "Hayes, via Catford Bridge"
Is that a Geoff Marshall reference?

[erwallace]

Trains on HS1 do not stop at Strood between Ebbsfleet and Ashford. However, they do stop there between Gravesend and Rochester

[Sarahbryson]

Please do LNWR/WMR (and you should offer your maps as printable pngs!)

[nefastus]

Thank you for a great video Ashley! You mentioned Elizabeth line being extended. Is that already decided and progressing in any way?

[Sunnysideup]

There is a ghost train every weekday from charing cross to gillingham only and 2 trains a day to tonbridge from stood and 2 trains a day from st pancras to madistone west

[jonbaldwin]

Only 2tph through Greenwich now. The other 2tph are provided by Thameslink.

[CurvedGD]

I FOUND AN ERROR!
The High speed services that stop at strood (the hourly ones) also stop at gravesend, and the high speed services to ashford dont stop at strood or gravesend. you also forgot to mention the rare St Pancras to Maidstone services

[ukrailspotter]

Can you do Greater Anglia, LNER or Transpennie Express pls
