My bad, meant AD Posted this while trying to do some coursework, not a good idea lol. As for DW77, i don't think i saw it, though it may have gone past as i was on 17490 on the 262 where i couldn't get a clear view

The announcements actually said that there was no service between Canning Town and Woolwich Arsenal and no service between Beckton and Poplar. Plus various trains parked up along the Beckton line, not moving at all, including one at Cyprus which i walked over, kinda gave the eveidence that the whole system east of Canning Town was suspended

Besides, i doubt a train load of uni students on a bus could all be wrong. My mate was later than me too, she got in about quarter past 10
