Did it call at Bath or any other places between BRI» (Bristol Temple Meads - next trains) and RDG(resolve).

I watched it on the NRES (National Rail Enquiry Service) site but it seemed stuck between Bristol Temple Meads and Stapleton Road as it was awaiting a report from a monitoring point between the two points until it disappeard from the NRES site at about 0910, the Reading departure time not having been reported.

It should have gone via BPW» (Bristol Parkway - next trains)!

With the 0631 cancelled, it was standing room only on leaving BPW!

01/11/2007.

Today 1L19 is 180 vice HST (High Speed Train)


Yeh !

I know the morning e-mail says "07.10 Bristol Temple Meads to Paddington service will run formed as 5 carriages instead of 8."


Yeh !

I know the Service Incidents reports "This train has run short formed with 5 carriages" at 0800 when its not due to arrive at Paddington until 0855



B-B-B-B-But !

NRES (National Rail Enquiry Service) site shows the service as cancelled throughout.


A-A-A-A-And !

FGW (First Great Western) Live Departures and Arrivals website page shows the service as cancelled throughout.


Someone still got a hangover from last night and seeing Ghost Trains running this morning !!!!!

This mornings 07:10 BRI» (Bristol Temple Meads - next trains) - PAD» (Paddington (London) - next trains) services arrival at Paddington this morning marked a FIRST for FGW (First Great Western). This week 05/11/2007 - 09/11/2007 is the first week since last Decembers TT change that this peak hour Monday to Friday service has actually run every day as scheduled and to celebrate this the service was actually reported as arrived at Paddington at 08:50, 5 minutes ahead of the scheduled Paddington arrival time.

Pity it disappears from this Decembers TT, no more moaning morning commuters at Bristol Parkway unless FGW can come up with something which they really excel in, producing another unreliable morning commuter service to regularly cancel.
