This excuse is nonsense. It left 1 late from Salisbury and arrived 7 late into Westbury (having twiddled its thumbs at Dilton) as the signaller moved empty stock around in front of it for some reason, using the same platform. Then it got stuck behind a late running Paddington @ Chippenham.

Just to summarise (for when we look back, 5th January)

07:33 Westbury to Swindon - cancelled (but 07:04 delayed to run in its place, so in effect 07:04 cancelled)
08:49 Swindon to Westbury due 09:42 - cancelled. "This is due to a broken down train."

Noting that the broken down train was actually off the TransWilts - it was at Bradford-on-Avon

The guard for the 07:04 Cheltenham service was stuck on the broken down Portsmouth service, hence the knock-on effect on the TransWilts.

Hi All,

I'm new to posting on this forum, although have been lurking for some time. For my first post I have a question that I hope someone can help with...

Does anyone have info on how busy the evening peak services (16.23 & 17.23) departures from PMH are? I am considering a job that would require catching one of these and if they are sardine cans it would likely be a showstopper. Any info on the ease / hassle of daily commuting out of PMH would be great. Many thanks in advance!!
