The biggest issue with the Southend rail journey is that is takes so long and seems to stop at every station. I used it once many years ago and seemed to take forever. I am not knocking Southend but the rail link is also its Achilles heel.
' I used it once many years ago and it seemed to take forever!' That sounds like a Simon Calder travel review.
Try it again LTNman when you are able and give us an update.
