I'd like to apologise to readers who don't like trains and railways because all of this week's posts have been about trains and railways. I'm aware that many people do like trains and railways, including The Men Who Leave Comments When I Write About Trains And Railways, and their comments often make these posts look popular. But it has all been a bit relentless, sorry, and even my Monopoly interlude failed to bring respite because its prescribed focus had to be Liverpool Street station.
* n.b. TfL have updated their Dangleway consultation. It turns out 20 passengers use the cablecar between 7am and 8am, not the four in each direction they previously claimed, because they initially forgot about people who use carnet tickets. They've also decided that any changes to the timetable will take place in 2025, not this weekend as previously stated. Always go back and read a consultation again.
It means a lot that readers were more interested in my welfare than a new bus. That said, if I hadn't nipped in twice and said "I'm fine thanks (thanks)" the bus would have won. I'm fine, thanks (thanks).

I'd also like to apologise to readers in certain parts of London because I didn't write a post about your neck of the woods this month. The boroughs of Bexley, Brent and Barking & Dagenham were amongst my egregious omissions. I was in fact out in Hillingdon yesterday investigating the proliferation of barbershops on the Uxbridge Road and also in Harrow admiring the listed semi-tower of St Paul's on Corbins Lane, but neither of these passed the threshold for an interesting post which is why you're reading this November summary today instead. My apologies and rest assured I won't do a summary like this next month, nor will December be quite so full of trains and railways because nothing new is happening.
