From FGW JourneyCheck:

Quote
21:27 Southampton Central to Bristol Temple Meads due 23:31

This train will call additionally at Mottisfont & Dunbridge and Dean.

This is due to animals on the line earlier.

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.

It looks like SWT may have lost a 158 from the Salisbury/Romsey circuit, or at least had an earlier train in the up direction seriously delayed, because at a similar time the Waterloo - Weymouth had additional stop orders for Eastleigh, Swaything, St Denys, Millbrook and Redbridge.

whatever next? London Midland calling at Water Orton and Coleshill Parkway or East Midlands Trains calling at Burton-on-Trent?

So today that would give us the following departures:

09:58 to Paddington
10:52 Plymouth
11:05 Paddington
11:47 Penzance
12:53 Penzance
13:07 Paddington
13:55 Penzance
14:07 Paddington ...
etc

Yes, that looks like the basis of an appropriate daily service Wink
