06:10 Frome to London Paddington due 08:11

    This train has been reinstated.This is due to poor weather conditions.

    This will be the only service to serve Frome today.

    Last Updated: 05/02/2009 06:09

Did the 06:10 really run? This update from the FGW (First Great Western) site was posted 06:09, but the live train departures showed it as Frome:cancelled Westbury:on time (actual).

Only service to serve Frome today? Is it that bad in Frome, or is this a planned "timetable simplification" of the TT?

Clearly a mistake there as trains from Weymouth were running ok, I was on what was the 0802 off Frome albeit I caught it at BTM (Bristol Temple Meads (strictly, it should be BRI)).

Too many assumtions on my part there as it managed to get to Trowbridge, forgetting that it would probably miss out Frome altogether. I've not seen anything but is it the same today given the attrocious conditions.
