1  Journey by Journey / London to Didcot, Oxford and Banbury / Timetable changes making commute longer on: December 05, 2019, 21:38:37
Hi all, newbie poster here. I was miffed to discover that despite what is being trumpeted about the forthcoming new timetable, my morning commute from Pangbourne to Paddington will actually end up 9 minutes longer. Currently 06.56 arriving 07.38 but this train seems to be being merged with the current 06.48 to become a new 06.49 arriving at 07.40. I suspect this might have something to do with the new TFL (Transport for London) rail service but does anyone know what has happened here and whether it is likely to change when full Crossrail comes along?
