Likewise, a few particularly busy south coast XC^▸ services used the Reading avoider on Saturdays - apparently this often led to arguments with people who assumed the missing Reading announcements were accidental, but it was as per the published timetable.

I expect the current XC services that skip Parkway and Winchester in the afternoon result in a reasonable number of overcarried passengers who weren't too bothered about what the PIS^▸ displays and announcements were clearly telling them...

I like your thinking Jim and I wish it would happen! Also, I must add they must have hourly services from Oxford to Banbury calling at all stations to and fro Oxford. This includes Tackley, Heyford & Kings Sutton. Our service is so bad.

Welcome to the Coffee Shop forum, Super Sprinter 150 - but perhaps I could ask that your avatar be reduced in size, somewhat!

Thanks, Chris.

William Huskisson MP^▸ 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.

Pretty sure nobody thinking bad of you Jim, but this place is for discussion, and people have raised points, and you're not responding to them.
