Title: Re: Delay Repay changes ? Post by: grahame on March 19, 2023, 10:30:11 Superb timing ::) I am in favour of reducing the cost of delay repay ... doing so by making the trains more reliable.

I'd much rather the train ran on time than get a bit of the fare back.

Post by: PhilWakely on March 20, 2023, 09:57:47 Day one of four days of GWR Westcountry diversions and already (as of 10am), as a result of the very first Down service leaving Paddington 15 minutes late, delays to both GWR and SWR services has reached 100 minutes! Could be quite a hefty bill come the end of the diversions!
