FCC Service Gone Downhill

Is it just me or has the train service gone downhill slightly in the last week. I know the weather wasn't exactly great last week and two days of 'severe snow' caused problems but I haven't had a single train for 6 days now arrive on time and get to Moorgate on time. For the third time in quick consession I've been kicked off at Finsbury Park for a fault on the train after it running fine all the way there. I hope this is just a blip as their is nothing worse that being stuck on a slow running train and to think we pay upwards of £2000 for the pleasure!

I haven't had any major problems, but I have noticed that pretty much all trains seemed to have slipped back to running a few minutes late by the time they've arrived at their destination. Happened again this morning, and a few minutes can be a lot when you're already leaving the journey til the last possible minute!

Exactly - I use to get the 7.33 from HN now get the 7.50 so if the train is late, I'm usually a bit late for work. Especially as I need to stop and get some breakfast and a coffee on the way in. The trains do seem to be running a little slower I have to say. It seems they are getting in around 5-10mins later at the final destination. I really hope they sharpen up so that people can get where they need to be.
