2V90 11:10 Weymouth to Gloucester will no longer call at:
Trowbridge
Bradford-On-Avon
Avoncliff
Freshford
Oldfield Park
and
Keynsham
This is due to a late running train being infront of this one.

And for the extra double whammy...
Toilet facilities are not available.
Disabled toilet facilities are not available.

Probably due to the late running train making the same stops anyway - might be worth a look back later.

By the way - although Bradford-on-Avon is in the Cotswolds, this service is on the Heart of Wessex line rather than either the North or South Cotswold line ... may be worth a move tonight to that part of the forum.

I definitely was not paying attention when I typed that!
If someone could move it, that would be great!

Now done - no problem!  Wink

William Huskisson MP▸ (Member of Parliament) was the first person to be killed by a train while crossing the tracks, in 1830.  Many more have died in the same way since then.  Don't take a chance: stop, look, listen.

"Level crossings are safe, unless they are used in an unsafe manner."  Discuss.

The 1110 was running about 20 mins late, roughly in the path of the following Portsmouth - Cardiff service, although that itself was also running late.  There seems to have been a number of problems on the Weymouth line yesterday with some major delays to services.

I like to travel.  It lets me feel I'm getting somewhere.
