I travelled from East Grinstead to Melksham by rail on December 10 2011, changing mid-afternoon to the TransWilts train at Swindon. The journey took about three and a half hours. I made a similar journey by rail to Melksham on December 24, and left Melksham at 15:21 on December 27 to return to East Grinstead . It was a delight to make these journeys by rail. The trains were clean, the staff were attentive, and all the connections were efficient and on time. As I often travel to Melksham, I started thinking how nice it would be always to travel by rail. However, when I investigated the timetable I realised that I'd been lucky to choose trains that suited my travel plans, because not many trains run through Melksham. I'd like to ask: will more trains daily be using the TransWilts line during 2012?
