Title: Spot the errors Post by: JayMac on February 16, 2013, 13:42:01 These are the schematics from the Easter 2013 timetable booklet 1 (http://www.firstgreatwestern.co.uk/~/media/PDF/Planned%20Changes/Feb%202013/Book%202%20web.ashx) and booklet 2 (http://www.firstgreatwestern.co.uk/~/media/PDF/Planned%20Changes/Feb%202013/Book%201%20web.ashx) published by FGW:

Title: Re: Spot the errors Post by: Southern Stag on February 16, 2013, 13:59:54 Truro has become Taunton and Gloucester has become Worcester. How bizarre.
Title: Re: Spot the errors Post by: bobm on February 16, 2013, 14:01:59 Taunton and Worcester - so good they named them twice! ;D
Of more concern is I went to the station specially to get them and didn't notice til now! They obviously opted for safety on the booklet for the Cornwall blockade which starts today - there is no map on the front!

Title: Re: Spot the errors Post by: Southern Stag on February 16, 2013, 18:10:36 For the period of that timetable it is correct, services will call London, Oxford then Swindon.
Title: Re: Spot the errors Post by: thetrout on February 16, 2013, 23:44:20 For the period of that timetable it is correct, services will call London, Oxford then Swindon. I agree in partial with that. Perhaps a note to say this is the amended train/station running during the East Reading Blockade? Although that Truro/Taunton mistake is a basic, schoolboy error... ;D Title: Re: Spot the errors Post by: Ollie on February 17, 2013, 00:45:03 I agree in partial with that. Perhaps a note to say this is the amended train/station running during the East Reading Blockade? Well that is kind of the point of the replacement timetable ;) Title: Re: Spot the errors Post by: ellendune on February 17, 2013, 08:57:21 For the period of that timetable it is correct, services will call London, Oxford then Swindon.

Title: Re: Spot the errors Post by: Southern Stag on February 17, 2013, 12:24:59 Presumably that Worcester is meant to be Gloucester.

FGW have published an amendment which acknowledges the error in booklet 1, but not the one on the cover of booklet 2. http://firstgreatwestern.co.uk/~/media/PDF/Planned%20Changes/March%202013/Errata%20RDG%20Easter%2013%20V2.ashx (http://firstgreatwestern.co.uk/~/media/PDF/Planned%20Changes/March%202013/Errata%20RDG%20Easter%2013%20V2.ashx) Title: Re: Spot the errors Post by: JayMac on March 28, 2013, 23:22:35 Gloucester is still Worcester then?
Title: Re: Spot the errors Post by: trainer on March 28, 2013, 23:29:16 Taunton: so good they named it twice :D
Title: Re: Spot the errors Post by: bobm on March 28, 2013, 23:32:16 Sorry I used that joke in reply #3!
..and on Tuesday it was far from true - it was freezing!! Title: Re: Spot the errors Post by: trainer on March 29, 2013, 11:23:16 Apologies: I must pay more attention bob - I will not write stuff late at night when I should be in bed. :-X
