I keep an eye on the GWR^▸ (Great Western Railway) advance bookings horizons page and I noticed it has not updated to 3rd Feb 2023 - but advance tickets are available on that date - I just bought one.

It looks to me whoever has to update this important page has not done it.

Cached page in browser ? just tried different device and browser, never used for GWR.

23rd September - The next horizon has opened for GWR^▸ (Great Western Railway) advanced tickets. Friday
Dec 9th

Took 30 mins to get two references for a bike booking, by telephone.

Original advance ticket from TheTrainLine.

Is there a better way ?

GWR^▸ (Great Western Railway) site is confusing. Gives a reference, but also says unable to book. Then on phone they say have space.

I check the GWR^▸ (Great Western Railway) booking horizons page daily.
https://www.gwr.com/your-tickets/choosing-your-ticket/advance-tickets

Is there any logic as to when the dates change?

I have been booking my weekly midday commute 08:01 Bristol Parkway to Paddington up to 6 months in advance.

The booking horizons seems to have shrunk from 6 months to 10 weeks.

In fact it is still shrinking.

Anybody have any ideas of what GWR^▸ (Great Western Railway) are up to ?

Hello,
Thank you both for your very full  replies.
I travel up two days before on the Tuesday, but will check a return fare.
I am trying to find when the increase in trains is coming (from 2-4 ph ?)
14:00 is too early - but thanks for asking
No railcard - except f&F - and my 5 year old is at school !
I could try on social media to find a "group" - or even leaflet people on the train ?
I am going to try Bristol Parkway - a right pain - but is cheaper
I have framed my last £15 ticket

Of course it now means it is much cheaper for me to drive to work.

Thanks so much again for your time.

Travelling
From : Paddington
To: Bristol Temple Meads
Time: 15:30 / 16:00
Date : Thursdays
Single only
Book via GWR^▸ (Great Western Railway) site

I travel this journey weekly and for the last few years I have booked in advance and been able to get an Advance Single for the specified service 15:30 or 16:00 for £15 or so.

During the last 6 weeks I have not been able to catch any advance single fares.

I have tried the trainline
com who will email when the advance tickets are released, bit still no luck.

Am I missing something ?

Grateful for any advice.

Regards

Tim
