Looks like they've finally admitted defeat on the TransWilts - I just tried to buy a ticket from MKM» (Melksham (Station code) - next trains) to WSB» (Westbury - next trains) tomorrow and there's apparently none available, presumably because no trains are expected to run....

Have you unchecked the "Standard Class" box and so looked only for First Class fares?  That would give you that result.

We don't have a first class service at Melksham - which I would define as a nice electric train each way every 30 minutes.   Don't have a standard class one either - diesel train each way every hour.  We have a third class service only, but it was badge engineered away from that a lifetime ago and is no longer so described.

For the record - Next round trip started late and flagged up as delayed both ways - I was busy on other stuff and failed to post it.

20:06 Westbury to Cheltenham Spa due 22:05

20:06 Westbury to Cheltenham Spa due 22:05 has been delayed at Swindon and is now 33 minutes late.
This is due to a points failure.
Will be formed of 2 coaches instead of 3.
