Title: Recommended minimum interchange times
Post by: grahame on September 16, 2020, 08:12:27
Recommended minimum interchange times - 10 minutes at Temple Meads, 7 minutes at Bath Spa, 15 minutes at Paddington.  Five minutes if not specifically set.

Who sets the time?
Is there a list or easy way to look them up?

Those minimum connection times go back to BR days. I remember when they first bought them out and started appearing on timetables and stations listing at the start of the GBTT.

I don?t think the ones you?ve mentioned have ever changed.

I think the ones for Gatwick Airport are fictional, certainly if you are coming from Reading and want to connect to an Eastbourne train on the far side.
