It's true going into CHX from LBG is simple (disregarding the steps accessibility question). Platform 6 is fantastic with trains to CHX all the time.
Going the other way is the issue - there aren't trains going to FOH every 3 minutes. So the journey into town isn't massively affected by the loss of a direct service, but the journey back is.


At 22:00 hours on a weekday, there are as many trains foinf from London Bridge to Charing cross as there are going from Charing Cross to London Bridge - about one every three or four minutes. So you should be able to time a train from Charing Cross to get you to London Bridge so that you don't have to hang around.

Which is probably why they're stopping the services. You make it sound like you've been asked to walk home!
