No, it affects nothing else except the validity of the entire government "narrative" of the July 7 bombings.

The problem with train times has long been known. For the Minister to dismiss it as an inconsequential detail, establishes that the Government's "narrative" of July 7, 2005 is a fradulent cover story that cannot withstand scrutiny.

As reported, here, on July 16 2005, the police released a surveillance camera (CCTV) photo of the four "bombers" supposedly entering Luton station on the morning of July 7th on their way by train to Kings Cross, London.

The image is time and date-stamped:

07.21:54 07/07/05.

The police had earlier reported that the "bombers" appeared the same day in CCTV images at King’s Cross mainline station at 8.26 am.

"The Luton to King’s Cross Thameslink service normally takes 36 minutes, and so the 7.40 am from Luton would usually arrive into King’s Cross at 8.16am. This would have fitted in neatly with these timed Surveillance cam images given out by the police."

Problem is, the 7.40 am train from Luton to Kings Cross] was cancelled.

Computer records of the scheduled and actual times of departure and arrival of trains from Luton to Kings Cross that morning were made available by Chris Hudson, Communications Manager of Thameslink Rail, at Luton station (see the timetable here).

The 7.30 am train, which was running late, left Luton at 7.42 am, but it did not arrive at Kings Cross until 8.39 am, too late to connect with the bombed underground trains.

Likewise, the 07.48 train did not arrive at King’s Cross until after two of the bombed underground trains had already departed King's Cross underground station.

"Was any train feasible? Let us consider an earlier train, which left Luton station at 07.25, and arrived into King’s Cross Thameslink at 08.23 am; thus, its journey took 58 minutes.

"This scenario would give the four young men barely three minutes to walk up the stairs at Luton, buy their tickets in the morning rush-hour and then get to the platform.

"Some have suggested that Lindsay German from Aylesbury had arrived early and bought the four tickets in advance (day-returns at 22 pounds each), to make this feasible.

"But, from King’s Cross Thameslink, it takes a good seven minutes to walk through the long, Underground tube passage which includes a ticket barrier, to reach the main King’s Cross station, in the morning rush-hour with large rucksacks – in no way could they have been captured on the 08.26 am alleged CCTV picture."

Thus, no train that morning was capable of getting the "bombers" into CCTV images at both Luton at 07:21 am and at Kings Cross at 8.26 am, which means that the Government's "narrative" of the 7/7 bombings is a fake.

It long past time for a police investigation of 7/7, beginning perhaps, at No. 10 Downing Street. In particular, it would be useful to know why the decision to hold no inquiry into the July 7 Bombings was made.
