  1. Prikvačeni tweet

    “The rubbish was taken off the train before me” I told how often I get left stranded on trains, why I think GWR’s new chaperone scheme is “infantilising”, and why I am campaigning for .

  3. I just took these 3 pictures during a 5 minute stroll from Gower Street to Euston Road. Dockless Bikes parked in the middle of the pavement like this are a constant obstruction and hazard for disabled and visually impaired people. And they’re *everywhere*!

    Fantastic podcast. I learned lots about living & travelling with visual impairment. One thing common to all disabled transport is the importance of 'other people'. Even a few occasional bad apples can make a disabled person generally v. defensive when interacting with strangers.

  7. Plant twitter: why are there mushrooms growing in my cheese plant pot? Where did they come from? What are they doing?! 🍄🌱

  8. Video shows point of view of Katie on a train as people pass her to get off. Eventually the doors close. Video has no sound but in real life people were offering to help me, and I said “I’m waiting for the ramp but I don’t know if anyone is coming”

  9. Another day, another ramp that didn’t materialise. 3 out of 5 trips to London this week have resulted in this - me stuck on a empty train hoping that a kind stranger will alert the staff to bring a ramp. This is why we need for all trains and platforms.

  10. Can’t put into words how it feels to meet people who ‘get it’, who fight with you, and who are so damn cool. I’ve had an incredible day of meeting likeminded activists at ’s BGM, I’m feeling humbled and motivated. 💪❤️

    You will probably have seen many tweets from disabled people about terrible passenger assistance they can receive at times. This is the solution that could move beyond these issues in the future. Amazingly we aren't doing this already in most new projects.

  15. Why are fully inaccessible carriages, which have been removed from other lines, allowed to continue to run on this line? Sometimes it truly does feel like we are going backwards.

  16. The train I had intended to get home was “unable to accommodate wheelchair users” due to the width of its doors. Later train for me then. It’s been a long week... 😔

    A screenshot reading “the 17:21 London Marylebone to Bicester North is unable to accommodate wheelchair users. This is because of the width of the doors and the gangways. Chiltern Railways station staff will assist you in finding an accessible service to complete your journey”

  17. “This leaves disabled people in an impossible situation: how are we expected to arrive early when we are always running late?” Here’s me chatting about trains and why I’m fighting for level boarding. Shout out to the DM for knocking a year off my age 😂

    This is what disabled people have to resort to in 2020 because a train company can’t be bothered to sort out turning up with a ramp. Imagine if every train you got on you didn’t know if you would be able to get off. That’s the reality for wheelchair users everyday.

  19. Apologies for lack of captions on video - I’m out all day but will write transcript when back home. The gist is - a man offering to help and me saying I’m waiting for the ramp.

  20. This scenario is all too familiar to disabled people. It is demoralising, stress-inducing, and makes me feel powerless and small. Like my time isn’t important.
