Title: Hello from not FGW land, but close enough.... Post by: swlines on December 12, 2007, 18:42:05 Hello all
(I really hate writing these...) I'm Tom Cairns and I run swlines, a site for some SWT lines at the moment, soon to be branching out to FGW lines (working on Cardiff to Pompey's at the mo!)... I enjoy winding SWT up and am currently awaiting some random stock allocation documents from FGW ... Tom Title: Re: Hello from not FGW land, but close enough.... Post by: Timmer on December 12, 2007, 19:22:17 A very warm welcome to the site Tom. Something tells me you will get on just fine here at the FGW Coffee shop.
Also whilst writing, a very big welcome to all those who have joined the site these past few days, particularly I notice from customers on the more eastern end of the FGW network commuting into London from the Thames area. The new timetable that started this week along with SDO starting is certainly providing plenty of interesting posts at the moment. Title: Re: Hello from not FGW land, but close enough....

You mean the start of SDO failures? :) Title: Re: Hello from not FGW land, but close enough....

Post by: Timmer on December 13, 2007, 18:38:27 Have a glimpse at what is in the works ... ;D Nice and easy to read Tom. You should get a job with FGW in producing their timetables for them. First job I'd give you is sorting out the hotch potch of a timetable 'E' which has 4 timetables rolled into one!http://www.swlines.co.uk/temp/DownSX.pdf Title: Re: Hello from not FGW land, but close enough.... Post by: swlines on December 13, 2007, 18:49:36 Updated with catering, train formations going up as and when I get the diagrams off FGW or some other party.
Title: Re: Hello from not FGW land, but close enough.... Post by: Ollie on December 13, 2007, 18:52:17 Just for the rolling stock page, first class on the 458's are either end of the train in little compartments.
*based on a set with fixed 4 carriage formation Title: Re: Hello from not FGW land, but close enough.... Post by: swlines on December 13, 2007, 19:44:39 Updated and now finished ....
Catering is shown - as well as trains to avoid (they're booked workings so I'm not particularly fussed if FGW mess up on the day, goes without saying).
