Not only difficult to use the ticket machine,but when you manage to select the ticket you require,it won't take payment by card of any sort,connection error by the looks of it ,many people frustrated today.

This is happening in Bristol today if it is of any interest.

Agree it's a great concern,however the amount of water when traveling along is vastly different to being left parked up in a heavy downpour,which will pool and search out any weaknesses in sealing of joints.

Surprised that the local alotment tenants aren't on the beach with buckets and spades ,kelp makes for some great fertiliser.

I was as luck would have it,able to see Flying Scotsman Twice last week ,both times at Pilning,in the down passing loop on the way to Cardiff and at a fair lick through platform one on the way back later in the day, a reasonable number of people turned out both times they were well behaved and it was good to see staff from both GWR (Great Western Railway) and a MoM from NR» (Network Rail - home page) in attendance ,no problems with scheduled services interfering with the view.
My thanks to Jay Mac for his reminder.

Let's hope nobody loses the Allan key...

Absolutely pathetic piece of poor journalism,from Telegraph Reporters ,that means more than one who won't put a name to the article.

A Hole remains at Pilning ,have you seen the state of the car park lately!..
On a serious note,now that things are starting to return to PFC pre Flu Condition,Pilning is not doing well and could really benefit from an injection of some support.

Sadly yes.
