No, it's a through turn of duty.
What does that mean in the particular example of the the late drive into Weymouth? |

Does the 6 hours and 20 minutes break between drives count toward the drivers hours? Just one shift with a very long paid break between drives?

A long wait to take the train back to Westbury.

The driver's hours start when he/she signs on and finish when they sign off |

Yet more problems today(15 August). 1531 Weymouth left as ecs to Westbury, presumably no guard. The 2048 Bristol to Weymouth cancelled beyond Westbury, lack of crew. This might impact on 0533 tomorrow.
The train from Great Malvern skip stopping north of Bristol to gain some lost time.

Not getting any better either: 17:30 Weymouth to Bristol Temple Meads due 20:09 has been previously delayed, is being further delayed at Maiden Newton and is now expected to be 70 minutes late.
This is due to a fault on this train. |

It's probably similar to a SWR» NIGHT turn for Basingstoke crew who do the 01:05 Waterloo to Southampton. The Driver is then on PNB▸ until 04:52 Southampton to Waterloo (being relieved at Basingstoke on the up journey).

This has been confirmed by a Westbury driver as their night shift. If the 165/6s need to go to Jersey Sidings, drivers are taxied to/from Mess room at Weymouth.

Beautiful spring day ... school holidays ... great for a trip to the seaside 17:30 Weymouth to Westbury due 19:07
Facilities on the 17:30 Weymouth to Westbury due 19:07.
This is due to a fault on this train.

Dont worry, youve caught it in plenty of time - Once they read that, it'll be 5 coaches  (rail, not road hopefully...) |

That diagram has been short formed all day. Although with rail replacement buses north of Westbury it probably won't be as busy as on a normal weekend.

And more difficult to get any more units to Westbury |

Couple of short forms today that shouldn’t be too much of an issue with the forecast for today not being the best. 08:41 Gloucester to Weymouth due 12:10
Facilities on the 08:41 Gloucester to Weymouth due 12:10.
This is due to a fault on this train.
Will be formed of 2 coaches instead of 3.
18:30 Weymouth to Bristol Temple Meads due 21:03
