Title: February 2022 - Ashley Down trackwork. Poor information flow
Post by: Sulis John on February 07, 2022, 22:45:06
For several weeks we have been being informed by announcements of engineering work in late February affecting stopping services heading from Temple Meads to Severn Beach and Filton - and being directed "for further details" to gwr.com/bristol. With less than two weeks to go, those "details" are still conspicuous by their absence. By "details" I mean that all important piece of information - a timetable. Journey planners are all very well if you want to plan an individual journey at a particular time, but are nigh on useless if what you need to know is "what does the whole day's / morning's / afternoon's train service look like" because you're trying to work out the economics of season ticket renewal. Am I just looking in the wrong place, or aren't we going to be allowed to know when trains are going to run without looking up each one individually?

Does this not cover it?

GWR stopped providing revised timetables at times of engineering works years ago. If you want to see what the complete  service pattern looks like Real Time Trains is a good source of timetable information. Detailed search is the best one to use I find.
