Hi,
I commute between Reading (platform 4
) and Bath 3 days a week, cycling to Reading station and leaving my bike there. This morning I got to Bath and realised I'd left my lights on the bike. It's not the first time I've done this, and in the past I've rung the station and a nice member of staff has gone out, taken them off, and looked after them until I got back.
However, today when I rang the
FGW▸ 0845 number to get the Reading station number, I was told that no stations have a direct number any more for security reasons, and that only the Police can contact them directly in an emergency.
So I have to keep my fingers crossed and hope that either:
- the thieves have a day off, or
- someone else takes the lights off and hands them to security (something I've done in the past)
I know it's my own stupid fault, but I do wonder what the problem is with stations having their own number
