1  Journey by Journey / Swindon to Gloucester / Cheltenham / Re: Swindon to Kemble re-doubling - ongoing discussion and updates on: August 25, 2014, 23:31:21
Went out today to see the reopened line at Kemble, where I saw 1G21 (0939 Paddington-Cheltenham) emerging from the tunnel at Kemble on the new Down line. Then pottered through the country lanes to Minety Crossing and saw 2G83 (1138 Swindon-Cheltenham) passing also on the new Down line.

For info, Minety and Collins Lane (Purton) crossings are still closed to road traffic for now, pending further work to enable their control and monitoring from TVSC» (Thames Valley Signalling Centre - about) at Didcot.
