Speeded-up journey

You want faster trains? Well try this...

According to the FGW^▸ website at 16.35 this afternoon, the 15.10 from Hereford, due at Moreton at 16.49, for a 16.51 departure, was expected to arrive at 16.25, a minute after its scheduled departure from Evesham. Either FGW have discovered the secret of time travel - truly transforming travel - or reported gremlins with the signalling system between the two stations were taking their toll on the website too.

not time travel, just matter transfer as in Star Trek, the one minute being the time it takes to dematerialise and rematerialise. Tongue
