The 25-year-old tweeted a picture of a Southern train carriage being transported on a lorry that had become stuck at a crossroads.
“Truck carrying a Southern train carriage has jammed itself in at the top of Crystal Palace and is holding up all traffic! Oh the irony!” he wrote.
Southern Rail has been subject to long-running industrial action because of an overtime ban. Predictably, this has seen a spike in frustrated commuters venting spleen on social media.
