Title: Swindon - Heart of the FGW Post by: bobm on February 13, 2014, 17:43:11 It had to happen - the hired in SWT set meets one of the 153s still in London Midland livery.
The 153 waiting to form a service to Westbury with the 159 SWT off to Cheltenham - both FGW services. (http://www.mbob.co.uk/rforum/swi1002.jpg) Title: Re: Swindon - Heart of the FGW Post by: Lee on February 13, 2014, 17:45:56 I just love that, as ever, you were there to record it...
...What would we do without you? ;D Title: Re: Swindon - Heart of the FGW Post by: chuffed on February 13, 2014, 19:15:48 Good heavens....bad enough to have LM or SWT coupled up to an FGW , but the shameless hussies,shacking up together when we weren't looking. Pass the smelling salts someone, :o before I have an attack of the vapours...... ::):o ;D

Pass the smelling salts someone, :o before I have an attack of the vapours...... ::):o ;D They would mot have been coupled. The 158 would be going to Cheltenham from Platform 2 and the 153 (Westbury) arrives and goes back to Westbury on top of the 158.This page is printed from the "Coffee Shop" forum at http://gwr.passenger.chat which is provided by a customer of Great Western Railway.
