Substantial progress. Proof of concept route filtering, route colors. Other cities' data (Chicago) also somewhat loads. SwiftUI is a dream. #iosdev #SwiftLang #SwiftUI #transit #GTFS

@SteveWhiteRail Hi Steve, any chance the busy 8:47 Lewisham to Cannon St service could become a 10 rather than 5 car service in the future? Thank you.

@Discoplomacy Thanks!

@simongoldring No, it’s The Economist’s app. Looks so clean.

Today i walked 4 post-wedding hungover miles around Shrewsbury in the mist and ate a scotch egg and pie with coffee for brunch

@matthewhodg I think the Elizabeth House situation is pushing down use the The Sidings retail area (although Brewdog is popular). I wonder if low footfall in The Sidings undermines the case for the new retail shown in the new passageway arches renders.

@simongoldring That’s a strange one, but that’s not the only site as part of the redevelopment. It’s a huge project and I wouldn’t imagine a single site being in dispute would hold the entire thing up.

What ever happened to the Waterloo station vision? Been very quiet for over a year on the area with developments on the north side seemingly stalled. The station deserves better!

@TfL Bus 380 is 10+ minutes late each week, then bunched up, two arriving at the same time. Around 6pm departing Lewisham Stop G. Thanks.

I have one free ticket to @iOSKonf to give away! It's taking place next month in Skopje, North Macedonia – just retweet this and follow @iOSKonf to have a chance of winning 🙌

@Se_Railway @SteveWhiteRail Thanks, good to hear! Have a good day.

@simongoldring @SteveWhiteRail Hi Simon. Lewisham station staff are aware and working on a fix to avoid flooding. ^HS

@Se_Railway good morning, Lewisham platform 4 stairs mezzanine is one big puddle again. Please can the drainage be reviewed? This was previously ‘faulted out’ in March 2023 and no visible action has been taken. Thanks cc: @SteveWhiteRail

@Se_Railway @SteveWhiteRail Hi @Se_Railway Lewisham platform 4 flooding remains a problem. Thanks

@Se_Railway @SteveWhiteRail Thanks!

@NickAndert @intrepidbrit Hey Nick, thanks for your 2023 Metro video update. I’m looking for an invite code if you’re able - cheers

@TfL cracked eggs on floor of DLR train travelling towards Lewisham. Front carriage. Departed South Quay at 20:46. Thanks.

@SebJVidal Perhaps that view controller could be a `UIHostingController` 🤯

Private UIKit API of the day… 👀 UIAlertController has a `_setHeaderContentViewController(_:)` method that lets you assign an instance of UIViewController as the alert’s header. This works across alert styles, platforms, and doesn’t interfere with accessibility! 🥳

@Se_Railway @TfL No, the small oyster only unit.

@simongoldring @TfL When you say top up machine, is this Southeastern branded and also sells paper tickets? ^PR

@Se_Railway hello, the Oyster machine at Lewisham station, outside DLR entrance, is not accepting valid bank cards, last week or this week. Thanks.

@Se_Railway @TfL I imagine same response, but just to be clear - the small oyster top-up machine opposite platform 3/4 gates, not the validators. @TfL

@simongoldring Hi Simon. @TfL manage the Oyster reader for the DLR entrance at Lewisham, we at Southeastern only have Oyster readers to access our platforms via ticket gates. ^PR

@acbdev Happy birthday sticker queen! 👩‍💻

Better late than never… on the way to #iOSDEVUK and finishing up my slides on Xcode, #Bazel and everything in between 🖤 Also age += 1 🎂

@kyledotmp3 @stroughtonsmith This was very early in my Swift adventures. I think it was all SwiftUI Shapes, ForEach-es and prayers 🙏

24 hours into a new project to display GTFS public transit data in native SwiftUI. Thought I might try a @stroughtonsmith style development thread. Can you name the city? #SwiftUI #iPad #GTFS #OpenData rough and ready code at github.com/goldringsimon/…

@polpielladev @chloeplazalska It’s all groovy

@simongoldring @chloeplazalska Thanks Simon!! How’s everything going mate? It’s been a while!

Newsletter is late (coming out later today) but I have a good reason… She said yes!! 💍❤️
