If the detail and management can be worked out, extending TransWilts services into Three Rivers services looks more and more like a no-brainer ... and bearing that in mind I'm looking at loadings of various services all the way down from Swindon to Salisbury.    Others welcome to add numbers / counts / data / comments!

From today - half term distortions all over the place!

06:36 Melksham to Westbury (not a though Southampton service until more 166 units have SDO (Selective Door Opening)).   
+6 -0 -> 16 at Melksham. 16/6.  -6 + 11 at Trowbridge. of 21 on board, 13 changed into the continuing train

07:01 Westbury to Southampton Central. +3 -0 at Dilton Marsh, some at Warminster, 30 into Salisbury
Noting there are usually several dozen children / young adults going to education - none of them on today
Also noting that only a handful of passengers remained on the train at Salisbury. Many new passengers joined

11:11 Westbury to Southampton Central - left 6 late after waiting for the HST (High Speed Train (Inter City class 43 125 units)) from the West Country
60 passengers on departure, most had come off that connection (less than 10 other passengers.)
-1 +3 at Dilton Marsh. -9 +6 at Warminster

11:32 ex Warminster (Brighton to Great Malvern train) 153 passengers from Warminster
Spoke to about 6 groups / individuals - total about 20 people.
Well over a half had come from east of Fareham (mostly Brighton)
Destinations split between the West Country and Bristol.
No-one headed for Great Malvern that I spoke to (indeed no-one through beyond Bristol)

11:55 Trowbridge to Melksham left with 26 on board; -6 + 3 at Melksham - 29/9
