Title: Re: Where was I today, 9th October 2017 Post by: Red Squirrel on October 10, 2017, 08:05:07 Is that the technical term for a female dog? He's already said he didn't have one...

Not sure how i can remember this but struggle with remembering important life stuff ;D Title: Re: Where was I today, 9th October 2017 Post by: stuving on October 10, 2017, 10:24:40 There's one obvious question: Breich ... why?
Was it just of you "befriending" work as a volunteer, visiting old stations to see if they feel lonely? Title: Re: Where was I today, 9th October 2017 Post by: John R on October 10, 2017, 11:24:40 Maybe Grahame was eyeing up the bench to improve the waiting facilities at Melksham once Breich closes.

Was it just of you "befriending" work as a volunteer, visiting old stations to see if they feel lonely? An interesting question. As a learning experience; having read about it, being vaguely in the area, somewhere to go and look and do some finding out. Understand the metrics of what's there, and how that reflects into what's proposed. Maybe Grahame was eyeing up the bench to improve the waiting facilities at Melksham once Breich closes. Hmm ... you have an assumption of closure there. Has it been decided of just proposed and consultations requested? Not looking to transport any station hardware, but to transport knowledged gained. Title: Re: Where was I today, 9th October 2017 Post by: John R on October 10, 2017, 16:00:52 I believe the consultation period has just ended, so no decision yet.

I had not watched this before my visit last week (just watched it a couple of minutes ago); interestingly they identified exactly the same absurdly easy way of adding access to the second platform and being able to dispense with the footbridge, and just how usefully convenient the station is for the major road junction. But they too had to take extreme measures to actually have time at the station to take a proper look around.
