You have my sympathy. It is ridiculus that you feel you have to travel via Sydenham or Catford B , rather than to FH which I presume is your nearest station.
Will the new gates , even when installed and open , allow for buggies. I hope so. Even so quite a steep set of stairs.
Not sure what we can do but still waiting for a reply from Duncan ( who seems to have gone quiet after initial interest ) as why they feel they can leave the Sydenham gate open but not the FH one. This I think is a very important point.
I think Southern are honour bound to, open the gates until the instillation of the gates starts. How they staff the gate is their problem. There are a lot of unemployed in SE 23 whom I am sure would welcome the job.
