From the FGW (First Great Western) website :

07:01 Portsmouth Harbour to Brighton due 08:20
This train will run short formed with 2 carriages.This is due to an earlier train fault.

07:30 Cardiff Central to Portsmouth Harbour due 10:54
This train has been revised.This is due to a member of train crew being unavailable.

Regret no catering available between Salisbury and Portsmouth Harbour.

08:30 Cardiff Central to Portsmouth Harbour due 11:54

I was on the 08:30 (09:35 from Bath Spa), a 150. Surprisingly there were quite a few seats left- I was right at the back of the carriage with the two tables and there were very few people back there...

Today the 08:01 from Westbury to Porstmouth Harbour was cancelled. I had to pay extra for the bus to get down to Warminster and just barely (literally within 10 seconds) made my bus connection from Warminster to Corsley where I work, so unfourtunately a compensation letter will be on its way (I don't like writing it, but I would like at least the bus fare covered!). According to the annoucements at Westbury it was because of a shortage of available trains but the FGW (First Great Western) website quotes staff member availibility.
